  Quite good, pepper on the nose, good fruit, ready to drink. Last bottle. Would like more. Nothing profound, but good value.

  15 minute decant. Impressive nose of dark fruit, herbal notes and a hint of smoke. Nice rich dark fruit on the palate, again with herbal notes and a hint of smoke. Prominent acidity ties everything together. Excellent overall.

  Toujours en pleine forme.
  Une trame de fruits noirs, compact, épicé, tendu par l
  Acidité, mineralité, avec des tanins encore charnus.
  Possiblement près de son apogée.
  Revisiter en 2024+
  91-92

  Syrah Blind Tasting - June 2021: [Tasted Double Blind] This pours Medium ruby in the glass. The nose shows a lightly aged character and there appears to be some new oak use in evidence. The nose shows toasty, nutty new oak, blueberry, plum, faint smokey intense, cigar box, and a herbaceous dried rosemary note. The palate is fairly low in tannin, and medium minus in acid, showing some alcohol on the finish. I suspect this is 13.5%+ and I also expect this does not have any stems used. I suspected this was a tad older than it actually was, but it is showing fairly well and grew on me over the course of the evening.
