Wonderful full bodied Syrah. Lovely dark ruby color. Leather, licorish and vanilla in the nose. Cherries and strawberries on the front then transitions to a very smooth vanilla and heavy licorish on the back. There is more going on with this wine, I just can't seem to pinpoint but am loving it. Not a long finish but enough to have a great appreciation of this elegant high structured wine.

Much more depth than the 08 - full, concentrated dark fruit, well-balanced, very enjoyable.

This was great at first sip - very smooth; killing myself for not buying more. Worked well with a grilled pork tenderloin.

Fruit bomb, with balance. Blackberries, and cherry in your face. Some notes of pepper, and a smooth lingering finish. Wow!
