Drinking really great. It is darker red fruits and a nice spicy side and in very good balance. Not going anywhere anytime soon but it is drinking well as is right now. Off the list at WS Tavern so pretty good provenance.

Black pepper, blueberry, beef jerky, leather, and a little earth on the nose. Tannins perfectly integrated. Smooth and silky. Blueberry, plum, with a hint of strawberry. Fruit still alive and well, showing through mid-palate to the back. Long finish. Slightly lighter (but not light like a Pinot Noir) in style; not your typical Cali Syrah. Balanced with terrific structure. Fantastic wine. Patience has paid off. Drink now.

Rich and viscous with berry sweetness. Good for at least 5 more years

Very nice and interesting but seems just a little light on fruit. Try another one soon I think these need to be drunk now.
