Nose and taste full fruit, huge, dark and cocao. Tasted hot and boozy as night went on, I mean wine and not attendees. Rich and think. Drank with Dobbes Sundown vertical 2004-2009. Crowd fav among all tasted. Gassed overnight and tasted line up next day. Still had same characteristics. Drink now, may be peaking or just slightly past peak. Celebratory bottle!

Very concentrated still, drank over two hours. Drink now or within next year or few. May lose fruit after that. Still a fabulous Gino Cuneo syrah!

Velvety smooth, rich, sumptuous. Still thick berry taste, great bottle. Wish I had more!
