January 21, 2019 - Pretty dense dark wine with a meatiness and spicy nature. Fairly well balanced and nicely dry. Earthy and cocoa powder. Fun aged syrah.

September 16, 2017 - After 8 years in my cellar and 5 years since opening one, this still is a fine almost black wine with hints of blackberry, soft spiciness, and an ever so smooth mouth feel. I wish I had more than one left!

November 16, 2015 - Much calmer than in early years, not so much crazy smoke and darkness, but those characteristics are blended into a very nice balanced wine that evolves well from beginning to end.

July 4, 2015 - Color: dark inky core -> fairly dense deep ruby rim. Simple nose of plums, blackberries and perhaps a little ground mace. Smooth, polished palate of sweet plum and cherry fruit with a touch of charcoal. Wine-strategies nailed this; open, smooth, serviceable wine that should appeal to the crowd, but just needs a little more soul.

August 24, 2013 - Rich fruit and smooth, perhaps lacking a little more tannin to balance. But enjoyed it.
