  Still a lot in the tank enjoyable big Syrah tanins pronounced but integrated into the dark fruit.

  Drinking perfectly. Delectable complement to our leg of lamb NYE dinner. Dark fruit, well-integrated tannins, nice structure, minimal sanguine/meaty notes but that’s how I like my Syrah (sorry—no Reynnvan for me), enticing nose true to the taste. Velvety mouthfeel. Sad this was my last bottle!

  I’ve had this in the cellar a d pulled out as part of our Thanksgiving wine options. The surprise wine of the day/evening. Still shows it’s power with dark fruit but tannins very smooth and simply delightful.
  I can’t imagine it can drink any better and looking forward to my remaining bottles.

  Don't recall details other than it was better than expected. A very nice Boushey vineyard Syrah. 91-92

  Decanted for 2 hours. Just too much edgy acidity (tartness) for my palate. Food wine.
