Still fairly well-structured. Rich & powerful, with layers of blackberry, crème de cassis & dark plum on nose. Moderate tannins & blueberry flavors lead to a long finish with soft, lingering spice notes.

As with previous bottle earlier this month, should have first decanted. Color has evolved from deep dark ink to brownish tones. Almost sour cherry notes although finish is pleasing & lingers. Once open, wine begins to harmonize. Should drink sooner than later...

Great value Syrah...wife and I cracked this bottle last night and it was a great pair with BBQ chicken and sweet potatoes. Dark Cherries and earth on the nose...smooth wine on the palate with a lingering but satisfying aftertaste. Great VALUE!

Took half hour to fully open. Nice blend of dark fruits with soft tannins. Should drink fine for another year...
