-- cork pulled about 1.5 hours before initial taste -- -- tasted blind over approx. 30 min. --
NOSE: smells big; dark red fruits.
BODY: full bodied.
TASTE: lightly tannic; smoky; hint of brett; pretty big; drink Now or continue to Hold: it's not tight or reserved at the moment, nor does it come across as being on its downslope.

Deep, dusky, smoky, olive, meaty nose. Syrah!!! Juicy palate, silky, fresh, blackberry, tapenade, black cherry, mouthwatering. It moves to a finish that is silky but still grippy and persistent. This is evolving, but slowly. No hurry at all.
