August 17, 2023 - Very smooth blackberry fruit with meaty flavors, excellent structure, tannins integrated and soft, ample finish, less funk

May 21, 2023 - Kleur: Diep donkerrood. Aroma / bouquet: Vanaf de eerste vleug: boers, sap van rode biet en bijna 'sap van gefermenteerde rode biet', rozenolie. Smaak / Afdronk: In de mond: een zachte zuurgraad, opvallend 'lactisch', een retronasale indruk van karnemelk. Boterzachte tannines. Algemeen / potentieel: Mijn derde notitie van de derde fles die ik kocht. En de hoge scores van andere CT-gebruikers kan ik werkelijk niet verklaren. Heb ik flessen met fouten of is deze wijn gewoon niet mijn ding? Liefhebber van Syrah en Shiraz in verschillende verschijningsvormen.... 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 8 + Smaak / Afdronk: 11 + Algemeen / potentieel: 7 = 81/100

May 18, 2023 - As close to perfection as I could imagine for a Syrah. Funk, olives, charred sardines and burnt tire, charred earth. Love it

May 13, 2023 - My first bottle of this wine. It takes awhile to settle down but when it doe it was worth waiting for. Concentrated and complex with a long life ahead. Hold or drink with long decant.

January 6, 2023 - Compared with a bottle opened three weeks earlier, a glass removed, the rest frozen, in a blind tasting. The frozen bottle was preferred 9 to 5 votes. Dark garnet, opaque. Very pronounced aroma of roasted meats, smoke, black olives. Deep, dark fruit, concentrated flavors, mouth-coating, fabulous flavors building over 30-45 seconds. Very slightly hot on the late palate and aftertaste, but just about perfect, and fully mature.
