  Very, very good. Drinking well right now. Only had one bottle......don't know how that happened.

  A real herb and metal bomb, this one. Thyme, sage, bay leaf, camphor, and iron hints that remind me of running rare beefsteak. As others have said, this probably needs another 3 years at a minimum, but I like Syrah when it's young and angry. Like a lot of CA Syrah this has a juicy, almost sour mouthfeel on the finish (bright jam?) that I quite enjoy. After a bit this opens up with tart cherry and charred pork belly without losing its verdant character. Very nice!

  Infanticide, although immensely enjoyable with grilled steak
  Still a tannic tight beast at this point
  I plan to let the other bottle sit for 5-10 more years

  Shared out at a get together and gone too soon. Silky smooth and wound tight. Should have decanted for a couple hours

  OK, this is a truly outstanding Syrah. Big and bold but not overpowering. Great balance and long finish. Great by itself and paired nicely with filet mignon.
