Decanted about 4 hours, drank over the next 24. The cork was perfect. Tasting notes similar to last year. This wine has held up beautifully and is drinking very well right now. Doesn’t have the overtly jammy taste. Good balance, surprising aromatics.

This wine has held up well, though I’m not a huge fan of petite Syrah. Strong aromatics, but the fruit has faded. Drink up.

Multiple tastings with consistent notes. Quite outstanding. It showed no signs of decline, could have used another couple of years in the cellar.
