December 20, 2016 - Wonderful nose with good balance. Surprised to see wine seep half-way up the cork. Expect this is as good as it's going to get.

May 6, 2013 - This wine is getting even smoother with age. We had 2 bottles with a flank steak and they complemented each other well. Cherry, nuts, spice all combine in a very full bodied Syrah. Very smooth and balanced.

January 12, 2013 - Decanted for 45 minutes before I started and drank over two hours...it kept getting better. Perfect for some nice cheese and crackers, dark, lush, just how I like my wine and my women.
