Another solid wine from this producer. Love their flavor profiles. This syrah is lush and full with unique flavors and aromas of cinnamon, roasted tomatoes, rhubarb, tobacco and coffee.

Definitely one of the finest Syrah's of the year. Needs 30 minute decant to get full flavor expression. Extremely dark garnet and magenta. On big swirl, nose of orange blossom honey, traces of lavender, raspberry candy, ripe huckleberry skins, and fresh graphite shavings. Round mouthfeel, coating, with more raspberry candy, and a finish that's true to fruit, and lasts a very long time. Nothing fake about the oak treatment, hardly noticeable, but it rounds the wine. Maybe a touch sweeter than some like their WA Syrah, but it's very fine.
