I continue to be so impressed with Carlisle. This 17 year old appellation Syrah is still drinking beautifully with plenty of fruit and great balance. Blackberries and plums with hints of spice in the nose and flavor. Medium to full bodied wine ending with a long silky smooth finish. Wow!

Medium fruity aroma, though not opened up in the beginning. Tannins is a bit tight and needed about 1.5 hours to open up. Fruity and more complex flavors began to evolve. It is enjoyable to drink after it opened up. A big wine but round and sound. A reasonable finish.
