A double decant ... lots of earth, leather and dark fruit on the nose and palate. Great balance of fruit, tannins and acidity ... nothing stood out, it just was a wonderful and big balanced wine. Enjoyable!

A very good Petite Sirah. Still pretty bold but has settled since we bought it. It's probably got a good few more years, though if you let it open some it's quite nice now and full of fruit.

Tight squid ink even after decanting through a vinturi. Loads of blackberry, blueberry, and stone/mineral but overall it's just got too much grip right now. Maybe someone out there can wait another year for this...
