April 28, 2018 - A big, dense and bold Syrah from this wonderful winery. Chocolate and ripe bing cherries with some pepper and spice.

March 2, 2018 - Deep purple colour. Needed to breathe a bit. Leathery, spicy, with blackcurrent and cherry flavours at the start, but rounds out with some sweeter strawberry notes. Moderate finish. Tannins are quite soft while flavours are fairly full and round.

June 11, 2016 - The legs are fast. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, black currant (cassis), cherry, soy sauce, vanilla and alcohol/hot. It tastes like blackberry and black currant (cassis). The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.
