PnP with dinner at a wine bar. Impressed everyone. Starts out as a huge fruit explosion like a petite syrah but then the tannins kick in and it drinks wonderfully with food. Just kept getting better through the meal. No signs of this wine going downhill. Enjoy

Deep tanzanite color leads to a nose of tar, blackberry, and a hint of vanilla. Full body has everything one wants in a syrah - beautiful fruit, followed by a tar/olive quality and finishing with sweet tannin. This was decanted 2 hours prior to drinking and paired magically with broiled lamb chops. I expect this has at least 7 to 10 more prime drinking years.

Loaded and ripe raspberry; heavy fruit.

Intense but delicious. Feels like this could sit for several more years.

Blown bottle. Seepage through the capsule. Bummer.
