Slightly brett on nose. Bordeaux varietal with Syrah was interesting, but more of an intellectual curiosity than a new desire. I liked it a lot, not LOVE, which is a different conversation.

This is an interesting blend, with Syrah added to a Bordeaux varieties mix. It's quite oaky, which is not my thing, but there's good fruit underneath the wood. Seems like they applied the normal Betz wood regime to a wine that's not quite big enough to handle it. Not bad, but I would rather spend more for their first tier bottlings.

Young and viscous at this time. I think this will evolve for the next 4-7 7 years to a high level of elegance.
