Excellent Syrah, co-fermented with 2% viognier. great nose, silky smooth tannins with medium+ finish. If you have any of this, I would drink it now. It was drinking well, but I think its past it's prime.

World class effort. Still too young? Maybe, I have one more I'll wait a couple of years. Concentrated and balanced....very dark and primary for a 2006.

Really, really good. hit its peak at 3 hours in the decanter. strong aromatics, dense flavors, a little iron/slate, and dark fruits evident. complex and balanced on the palate with a very long finish. should easily last until 2017 end of CT drinking window.

unbelievably young and concentrated. This will need another decade at least.

Still very young, primary. Wait at least 2-3 years before the next.
