Got this in a sale for under $40, a good way to check out a well-regarded producer. One PnP it was good, but I got mostly the higher register, including some oak influence, and nice ripe Syrah. This wants air, because it started to unfurl and show spice, meat, bacon, and sweet herbs. The real tell was the third night - a half a glass remained in the capped, but not gassed, bottle and drank very well, showing Christmas spices along with the other mentioned elements. So decant this! 90+

Needed am hour to open and come together. Great blue and black fruit, heavy on the cherry and plum. Great sage brush as well. Lovely overall

Needed time to breath. After an hour it was nice. Blackberry, forest floor— complex and enjoyable. Could use some more cellar time.

well integrated. Tight. Expected it to open up after 2-3 hours, but really didn't. Not sure if needed a decant or not.
