Maybe a slightly off bottle, maybe the wine is advancing quicker than anticipated, maybe a dumb phase? The Alban Syrahs are outstanding, this is the first meh bottle I've encountered. I have two more so I'll find out in the next few years.1 person found this helpful Comment -

July 4, 2023 - Pale yellow/gold. Fabulous legs. Lovely rich honeyed nose with just a hint of austerity to freshen it. Wonderful intensity on the palate with good weight. Seamless across the palate combining its exotic fruit with nicely integrated acidity, lovely balance. Good length. Excellent.

May 5, 2023 - Fantastic wine. Great weight and complete flavor profile. Adding some age really improved the wine. It probably had another 5 years on it.
