Fairly big RRV syrah from Balletto. The nose is loaded with ripe dark cherries and a good hit of smoke, some earthiness and a bit of tanned leather. There's ripe black berries on the tongue but the fruit is just starting to fade, some more of the smokiness/leather, fine grained tannins, medium acidity and a medium long finish.

Decanted two hours, earthy nose, light in style, bright red fruit, lingering and somewhat acidic finish.

Started out one-dimensional with mostly jammy fruit, some vanilla and acetone. It improved after about 2 hours. Decent acidity and finish.
