September 6, 2019 - took a few minutes to open and then wonderful Deep rich color and flavor
May 5, 2015 - Surprised how well this fully mature Petite Syrah showed. Spicy and deep. Not too shabby for $12!
March 11, 2011 - ON its downside. Tasted a bit too much like a cabernet.
March 14, 2010 - Rich and silky, still with substantial tanniins. Full body and inky purple in color. This vintage has plenty of life left in it.
December 16, 2008 - On it's way out, this will not last any longer. Nothing to this wine at this point. Tannins at the end, but lacking much flavor at all. Sadly, I have one more bottle. As they say, "smoke 'em if you got 'em."
November 29, 2008 - simple, ready to go.
July 4, 2008 - Nose is very muted, slight herbal scent almost V8 like with a slight hint of pepper. Plum and oak on the palate with an almost sweet undertone, pepper carries through on the palate. This is a bit different than the last bottle, think it may be a bit past it's prime, nothing real exciting here.
April 16, 2007 - Very spicy, medium body, paired very well with Indian food at home.
February 4, 2007 - Decanted for an hour, good berries, slight pepper, not bad but not great
September 3, 2006 - sturdy but not TOO sturdy...
