  Day 1: Much better than the last time sampling this wine. Rosted meats, iodine, rose petals, violets, soy and forest floor. Medium plus finish and complex wine. This has aged well and from a less than stellar vintage this delivers. 92 points
  Day 2: Really nice with a rustic edge along with roasted meats, violets, underbrush, pepper, iodine and blue currants. This is a wonderful Syrah that I for sure am enjoying more than the last bottle back in 2019. Medium plus finish. 93 points

  Clear, deep purple with medium meniscus and high viscosity. Wonderful nose. The black fruit hits first - plum, black currant and blackberry - with a bit of dark cherry behind it. Smoked meats, vanilla, coffee and gravel follow. Creamy and even waxy on the palate - where the black fruits show their power. Vanilla, sourdough and earthy flavors sail on.
  Full bodied, Med+ acidity fine tannins. Drinking well now but I believe there are several years left.

  Dark fruits, spice, oak, and a 30+ second finish. Very nice.
