Decanted for over an hour and enjoyed with a group of friends. WOW, what a lovely and sensuous syrah that developed and opened up nicely!! Wonderful floral nose, black cherry fruit, spice and pleasant lingering finish.
Completely different and much more refined than my prior two bottles...which pwhere good, but a little too muscular and disjointed, and as such now realize and regret having opened way too young. WOTN, with everyone commenting multiple times at how lovely and food friendly this was. Wish I had more ;-(

Popped and poured. Dark red color, hints of spice, black cherry fruit and medium body with a pleasant finish. Still holding up nicely, but will try decanting my next bottle to see if that will allow it to open up more.

Fruit has faded and wine has lots of heat. Seems to be past its prime. Somewhat of a disappointment.
