No detailed notes. Wet wood/oak/dark fruit on the noes. Drank over 3 days using gas to preserve. Good fruit and I agree with other comments this is a good QPR at $15. More of an easy drinker with fruit up front, but it does lack the complexity of higher end syrah. It missed the mark for me a bit style wise, but still a solid wine. Needed more acid to be in balance. I may hold my final bottle for a few more years to see if anything interesting happens as there is decent tannic structure.

Still really liking these. Not sure it's time to drink up, but perhaps sample one to see.
