Found this bottle not recorded and hiding in our wine cellar - what a great surprise. Still drinking well! Leery since the drinking window was til 2016. Not at its prime but still holding its own with beautiful deep burgundy color and much to offer - coffee and ripe berries predominated. Could have mistaken it for a zin.

Please see previous note. Menthol has faded a touch. This may be off its peak now, so drink up. Still a great bottle at a phenomenal price. If I could buy 6 more I would, I just wouldn't store them any longer. 90 pts.

Nice bottle finally starting to show some age. Need to try another soon to verify not just the oddball bottle.

This wine has aged well. Still fruity, but with that nice syrah spice.
