Crazy aromatics! Best on night 3. This bad boy needs tons of air which is surprising but it will unfold layers of purple flowers, black fruit, campfire, ash, roasted game, and herbs.

Popped and poured at Spanish Bay this weekend. Too young and needs more time. It got better at the end of the glass but it's pretty tight. Dark purple color but closed. Give it 2-3 more years. Wine has medium mouth feel and seems more like a cooler climate Syrah to me.

American and French Syrah (SF Wine Trading Company): Very dark. Briary. Fairly syrupy blackberry jam that is a hair short of being completely over the top. After the relative subtlety of the Enfield, this was like an alcoholic punch in the face.

Best on night 2. Savory notes of bacon fat, olives, and charcuterie.

Much too young, but it opened up with a 2 hour decant. Voluptuous and jammy.
