This is drinking, miraculously… Very slightly tight on first open, but after 20 to 30 minutes and had nice dark fruits with the seductive earthiness and a bit of fresh leather… I’m glad I’ve got one more of these – but I don’t know how long I will wait!

Paso Robles Winery Visits; 8/30/2023-9/1/2023: Gorgeous opaque purple. Real Syrah aromatics-blueberry, spice, herb, and florals. Big but not overwhelming. Lush dark red fruit attack, cocoa powder, slightly tart acidity, some cooler green notes, and round, serious tannins. Excellent and complex with soil arriving on the finish, outstanding cling and persistence. Should have at least a 10 year drinking window with its relatively early accessibility.

Lovely, complex expression of a cool climate Syrah. Drinking well now but can hold another 5+ years.
