July 31, 2022 - Still plenty of life left in this. On the lighter, fruity side of syrah, or what might be expected from Edna Valley. Fairly bright fruit, with medium weight body and just a hint of barrel character. Good acid, making it food friendly.

Sweet, roast plums and briar,
Smooth and a little sweet, vinous, black olives, a little brine, cherries and blackberries, pepper, polish, good acidity, modest tannins, great smooth fruity finish.
Maturing wonderfully, great now, but good for another 3+ years. -
