March 7, 2019 - Nice easy drinking syrah. Fragrant nose of black cherries and licorice with a hint of white pepper on the finish. Nice acidity and good length. Very smooth.

November 1, 2014 - When we first opened it, it was great, big and bold, but as the night went on it got a bit "muddy" and flabby for me. Wonder would have happened if we waited a few more years.
