Great bottle of syrah. Big nose of beefblood, farmyard, and wet earth, nice and strucutred on the palate, and well balanced. Just maybe a tad too short on the finish to make this really exceptional. This is a point now and for the next 5 years.

Good colour but very much closed on the nose and the palate, wait 6 to 12 months for the next one. Previous bottles have been vigourous and young, but this has clearly entered a closed stage.
