  September 9, 2017 - Paired with grilled venison with a blueberry reduction, and this paired beautifully. Blue and black fruit tones with wonderful peppery overtones. On the full side of medium-bodied. Excellent.

  December 27, 2016 - A bit of an odd smell and taste. Going to leave to decant overnight.

  January 28, 2015 - I very much enjoyed this syrah. My initial impression was that it had some age on it, despite being so young. Rich dark fruit, but rounded, integrated oak, plush, and a bit of a liqueur sensation. Very delicious, it held up for a few nights quite well. I won't hesitate to drink these, although I bet they'll benefit from a few bottle years.

  December 23, 2014 - Popped and poured. Notes of cherry and plum, with spice and pepper notes underneath. Good fruit and structure. A bit straightforward in its youth, this needs a few years in the cellar. Try again in 2017.

  December 4, 2014 - Popped and poured. Nice aroma on this with blackberry, some spice and pepper. The taste is a bit more dominated by the dark fruit as opposed to the other flavors of some tar and tobacco. A nice wine that will potentially have some upside. I will let my other two bottles rest at least a couple years before checking in again.
