  Legends of the Northern Rhone (Prince Sydney, 40 Hansard Street): Slight leather, caramel and leaf with red currant, some oak here. Biscuit. Less juicy, bit of oak again, truly almost a bit flabby compared to other wines but peppery spice and red currant fruit and an almost perfumed note.

  This bottle didn't quite do it for me; The palate came off a touch too grapey, with a slightly hot finish that didn't seem very integrated; After some air, some pepper and meat aromas emerged, but this still was underwhelming

  Lots of black pepper on the nose. Spice. Man, I just love Northern Rhone Syrah. Older vines, more mature wine maker than when I first tasted too.
  
  Tasty across the mid, with some snap across the mid palate, pure Syrah. That snappiness is very nicely integrated.
  
  Lots of choices in Croze at $26 though...

  Plumper and juicier than the last bottle, and at the level of past vintages, with its blackberry perfume, lush and vibrant
