  Decanted. A bit of fine sentiment. Beautiful Syrah.

  Drank 06,07 and 08 over the last 3 months. Decanted for an hour. Fine sediment. More complete wine of three vintages. Only one I’d go several more years with (have one left of each).

  Upon uncorking there was not much nose, a hint of oxidation. Color was deep dark purple/brick red. After breathing for about an hour it began to open up. Oxidation on nose was gone, now some very dark fruit with a hint of cola and oak. Was very very nice.

  Perfect window. Plum and black cherry on the palate. Excellent.

  This was a beautiful wine, almost fully matured and quite elegant - like a (slightly fruitier) high-end N. Rhone. Sad to see the last of this vintage gone.
