    January 2, 2021 - Open this full throttle mature Syrah a few hours before drinking. Delicious with New Years day pork roast. Rich and concentrated dark fruits. Still has significant background tannin. Last sip of the evening was the best. Expect this will be drinking well for 5-10+ years.

    November 11, 2019 - A bit of a let down overall I'm sad to say. A beautiful nose of dark cherries and a whiff of chocolate - palate did not live up to its promise. A little thin, a little short.

    Black in the glass. Mesquite, blackberry and iron on the nose. On palate, similar flavor profile with medium+ body, high acidity, medium tannins and very long finish. Last tasted in 2014 and this has improved nicely. 92-93 range.

    February 2, 2019 - A bit less bold than I remember. More subtle. Needed a good 30-45 minutes to open up.
