Terribly dried out cork, but thankfully the wine was in terrific shape. A tad light orange on the rim, but bursting with spicy raspberry aromas. Full palate of brambley fruit that was very alive. Long spicy finish with a touch of sweetness (and heat - 15.8%!). The 24% Petit Sirah really helped with the structure and depth. Incredible performance, and much better than the previous bottle that was a touch porty. Well done Mike O (his first commercial vintage)!!!
