October 24, 2022 - Very young - better on night 2 (still good on night 1 though). Dark red, nearly black color. On nose, black olives, pepper, blackberry and iron - clearly Syrah. On palate, similar flavor profile to nose with medium+ body, medium tannins / acidity and nice long finish. 91-92+ Would rate higher with 5+ years in bottle.

April 5, 2022 - Surprisingly good first night. Drinkable and doesn’t really show the vintage like the 2018 SJ VV
Bravo! -

December 27, 2021 - Reticent nose offering black cherry and mulberry aromas along with black pepper and herbal undercurrents. Rich and structured with velvety tannins and an elegant mouth-feel.

June 20, 2021 - Decanted and consumed over 2 hours. Not as fresh/impressive as last time. That aside, consistent experience with the cork - cheap and easily falls breaks apart.
This bottle was purchased from K&L, whereas the last bottle was purchased wholesale. I know K&L's warehouse is not temperature controlled. Can't help but wonder if that explains this bottle's performance; it wouldn't be the first time I've had a problem with K&L. -

May 30, 2021 - Cork appeared cheap and defective. Decanted. Vibrant and translucent crimson. This showed quite a bit of structure the first 30 minutes and then pulled back to reveal a beautiful and approachable wine. Light aromas of red, blue, and purple fruits. Same fruit profile of moderate strength flavors plus a touch of savory meats followed by moderately dusty tannins on a long finish. Moderate+ complexity. Enjoyable now. But, lots of energy in this wine. 92-95.
