Community Tasting Note

hrazdiiv Likes this wine:

Monday, October 24, 2022 - Great bottle. This wine is showing well now and was decanted for about 45 minutes, which ended up being a great call. Comes out of the bottle with a medium/dark purple red, not as dark as a 100% Syrah would likely show (the wine has an undetermined amount of Viognier). Really wonderful nose of dark blue fruits, vanilla, leather, and just a general interesting mixture of primary fruit with the beginning of secondary elements. Nice palate with tannins sanded down but still present enough to hold up the fruit on a bit of a pedestal. Expanded, weighty finish that had an interesting savory flourish. One of Sanguis's "annuals" (as opposed to their one-offs), this was aged 26 months in large barrels and it shows in the complexity.
