December 19, 2020 - My personal perception is this wine is possibly fading. I felt it showed more on day 2 but in a cloying way. I will say I purchased it late and therefore not positive how well it was cellared before it became a victim of my desire.

McMalbec Does not like this wine:
November 26, 2020 - Wanted to offer a Thanksgiving red wine in addition to our standards, Zin and Pinot. Looked in the cellar for a Syrah blend and, considering the menu, chose this bottle. Opened 30 minutes before serving. Enveloping nose-Cassis,whiff of vanilla custard and licorice; not fruity but blue and blackberry, whiter pepper and baking spice on the palate; well integrated tannins on the finish.
Paired nicely with herbed, grilled turkey. -

October 25, 2020 - 2 hour slow ox. Nose: Unreal aromas of blackberry, cassis, flowers, moss, lime and traces of wet cement. Wow! Palate: Soft, evolved tannins that actually pick up some intensity w/ air. Flavors of blackberry, white pepper, and hints of blueberry and bacon fat. Finish is balanced but long. Last bottle and best of this. Fabulous effort! Now 93 points.
