Probably a matter of taste, but I didn't love this. It's got a lot of white pepper and dried cranberry, with bright acid and a juicy texture. Drank it with pot roast which I felt should have been a good pairing, but the flavors sort of clashed. It's definitely possible that it'll mellow out and come into balance over time -- it's not an un-complex wine.

Really liked this wine. Lot of finesse and elegance to it. Medium to large bodied syrah but not overpowering or jammy in any way. First I've tried of the cold-weather california style of syrah. A nicely present but not huge peppery taste, with just such a nice balance of tannins, fruit, and acid. Very well done wine.
