Quite nice for a $10 bottle. Good nose, rich but not heavy fruit on the mid palate and a nice satisfying finish that's better than many $10-$15 Aussie examples. I've had some of his reserves that really kick the can but appreciate the value of this 2010 example.

I don't have enough tasting experience with syrah to be critical but I really liked this. Perfect with BBQ. Plum was the predominant fruit with a nice finish. This wine should be drunk with a meal or strong cheese. It is too bold just for casual sipping.

Very nice syrah, although I regret not sticking to my original intent, which would have been to let it wait another year or so. Pretty mellow for such a young wine.
