Tasted over 2 hrs -med dark red purple minimal clearing -juicy dark berry wet concrete -med/med+ acidity, med/med- weight sappy tangy blackberry mineral faint licorice really opens up after 2 hrs, med/med- tannins -very nice on mature plateau, this is more fruit dominant rather than the meaty/olive/peppery end of the syrah spectrum; interesting to see the evolution over 7 years

Popped and poured. No notes taken, but this was quite expressive and most enjoyable from the moment it was opened. Drinking really well right now, but should hold at this level (or improve) for a few more years.

Short decant, might have benefitted from more time. Nice, approachable syrah

nice fruit and balance but would agree with Frank Murray these need to be consumed now and with Eriku it is a one note wine. For me that is cherry
