Nice nose with dark berries. Full bodied, smooth on the tongue and palate. Cherries and plums up front; cinnamon, spice, and pepper on the finish. It became thinner the longer the bottle was open. Still a nice bottle.

The wine looks deep Inky red, opaque colored. Full bodied and The legs are Slow. It smells like Blackberry, Smokey Bacon, Coffee, Black Pepper, and Meaty with a similar palate and a full and rich textured mouth feel and an extended fruit finish. One of the best WA syrahs that I have tasted.

Aromas and flavors of sweet red berries, vanilla creme, and a little toasted cedar. Full body with a smooth mouthfeel. Tannins are receding, but still show grip.

Big fresh pepper and black cherry aroma. Hits the palate with a luscious mouthfeel and mixed red and dark fruit flavors followed by some spice and a touch of acidity. Gets a little watery on the finish though and leaves some burned rubber flavors lingering. I wanted to like this bottle more but it just doesn't pull through on the finish. Still a good good big wine for solo sipping.
