Community Tasting Note

91 Points

Tuesday, November 29, 2005 - Tasted as part of the CWM Syrah/Shiraz Showdown

I brought this to the showdown and expected it to be a little better than it showed. Decanted at 2pm and tasted between 7-8 pm. While fine blackberry, pepper, and graphite notes are on display, there is a lot of tannins. Currently 91 pts, given previous experiences with this wine I think it's rather closed down at the moment. 93+ potential. I gave this 95 points upon release.
