91 Points

Saturday, May 21, 2022 - 1st btl almost 7yrs ago. This has come along quite nicely since. Opened 3hrs ahead. Slow-oxed in 2 Burg glasses & btl leading up to dinner. Semi-opaque ruby center w/ lightening on rim. Intriguing aromas of meat, iron-earth & trace red berries. Nicely resolved & fairly weightless for syrah w/ decent lift & elegance. Palate offers subdued red fruit buttressed by mineral, licorice, tar, meat & other classic syrah notes. This is in its mid-term drinking wdw & quite good now. I'll likely save my last btl till 2025+. A modest 12.5% alc is appreciated! 91+ Excellent value here for $47 on release. Enjoyed it very much for a change but nothing will ever make me gaga over syrah:).
