A really decent Syrah. Some noticeable heat at the first but mostly it is earthy, dark fruits and a soft finish. (when the heat blows off) A very likeable wine and a solid QPR.

Maybe this wine needed just a little more time in the bottle based on reviews from others, but I thought this was a fabulous wine! Fruit forward and borderline fruit bomb. Lots of plum, cherries, and soil on the nose. Tons of dark fruits in the mouth. Very tannic at first, but settled after 10 minutes in the glass. This is a great QPR, and a great winter wine. Look forward to finding some more....if I can! Paired well with Moroccan cuisine!

Harsh right out of the bottle. Black cherry, bell pepper, earth and spice.

Another half bottle. Liquid earth, but in a good, grapey way. I still like this wine. Very good (86.5).

Another half bottle. I really like this wine. It is fruitier than other Syrahs I've had. Fess Parker does a fine job. Excellent.
