September 22, 2018 - I still like it. A touch backwards, but showing off that blackberry, red fruit, and black pepper, among other complexities. Drink now or watch it age into something that’s probably even better.

September 1, 2017 - 2 hr decant. Nose of burnt out firewood, raspberry liqueur, brambly berries, big time cracked pepper.
Medium bodied, red fruit, fruit punch, strawberry, gravely, sanguine. Medium acidity, no detectable heat. -

April 24, 2017 - This Rosenthal import is a deep-to-opaque Syrah that offers a nice nose of bramble fruits, smoked meat, black cherries and earth. Medium-to-full-bodied, freshly acidic and with latent alcohol (listed as 13%), it serves up flavors which are in line with the aromas and wraps them with medium-weight, fine-grained tannins. Fleshy in the middle and medium-to-long on the finish, this is a quality wine that is quite worthy of its price. Enjoy it over the next several years. Drink now-2025.
