Decanted approximately 1 hour. Deep, rich, purplish red color. Full body. Deeply extracted fruit with a very long and complex finish. Continued to evolve in the glass over two hours. Delicious on its own, the wine showed its best when paired with rich meat dishes. Should have bought more of this! This wine will continue to improve over the next 3-5 years.

This wine opened up nicely with two hours of decanting. Very soft on the attack, this wine is a pleasant, easy drinking wine that will please novice wine drinkers. It has a Syrah profile without descending into the bananas foster territory that so many of Covenant’s lesser wines do. Drink now until 2023.
