Wednesday, August 16, 2017 - Best CA syrah I've tasted. Neither a fruit bomb nor hot mess. Nose of dark fruit w olive, a bit salty, a bit of meat or subtle funk. Echoes on mouth with pleasant acidic pucker and fine tannins. Didn't get that old world iron but excellent new world syrah to be pared w steak but also a creamy duck w figs or similar rich sauces that require that acidic palate cleaning.
