  March 17, 2017 - Black Lion Wine Club - Chenin Blanc and Syrah/Shiraz (The Black Lion): Medium garnet. Hint of dried fruit and floral, but leather, earth, tertiary notes dominate. Fully developed. Dry, astringent, dusty, lacks fruit. Short finish. Sadly past its best.

  February 16, 2008 - Decanted for 2 hours before drinking.
  
  Very dark ruby in the glass. Pleasant nose of dark fruit. On the palate, a bit too acidic on the attack, fruit recedes, and earthiness comes forward. Lengthy finish is a little bit rough.

  August 31, 2007 - Dark ruby in the class. Nice nose of dark cherries and some smokiness. Full bodied with slightly too strong acidity on the attack. Palate of more dark cherry, some earthiness, some smokiness. Medium very nice finish. Tannins well integrated.
