Dégusté avec une assiette de boeuf à l'anis. Bel accord. Robe rouge Amarante avec reflets bleutés, très dense. Nez expressif, anis, mûre, menthol. Bouche ample et généreuse sans lourdeur et aucune aspirité. Les tanins arrondis, du fruit mure. Une touche de sucre sans lourdeur. on ne perçoit pas l'alcool ce qui est salutaire. Longue persistance. Juste prêt à boire. Dernière bouteille, un coup de coeur.

Some positives here, if nothing too exciting. More aged oak than funk. Cab dominitaing a bit more than I’d like it to. And a HUGE amount of sediment... if you have some still, be sure to stand it up for a few days and decant.

Nez ouvert et complexe, fruits mûrs, confituré (Phil), menthol, bergamote, tapenade d'olive. En bouche, très généreux, beaucoup de fruits, mûre, cassis, menthe poivré, olives noires, bel équilibre, acidité, tanins, sucrosité basse et alcool sous controle ce qui augmente l'appréciation globale. Après 8 ans, le fruit est toujours croquant.

I like this when I first tried it at the winery. Improved somewhat with a double decant. Nose was nice but it was unbalanced on the palate. There was marked acidity. Doesn't seem like this will ever improve.

(Buty Rediviva of the Stones 77% Syrah & 23% Cabernet Sauvignon Walla Walla Valley) An aromatically intriguing and somewhat elusive wine initially that opens to reveal with wet stone, moist earth, a light funk, green olive, saline, ash, and bay leaf. The palate is dialed back with lower levels of alcohol, minimal appearance of oak, soft savory flavors, and tart acidity. 77% Syrah, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon. LeFore, Morrison Lane, Les Collines, and River Rock vineyards. Aged 15 months in neutral French oak. 13.8% alcohol. 365 cases produced. Sample provided by winery.
(Buty Rediviva of the Stones) Dark ruby color; tart plum, roasted fruit nose; tart roasted plum, pepper palate; medium-plus finish (77% Syrah, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon; 13.8% alcohol)
(Buty Rediviva of the Stones Walla Walla Valley) Syrah notes leap up from the glass with earth, funk, floral notes, blue fruit, and orange peel. The palate is on the lighter side of medium bodied with a real inner mouth perfume with abundant savory flavors. 77% Syrah, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon. LeFore, Morrison Lane, Les Collines, and River Rock vineyards. Aged 15 months in neutral French oak. 13.8% alcohol. 365 cases produced.

I think this is starting to turn. If you have it, drink it. Touch of medicinal on the taste and the nose. Almost had to pour it out.
