April 12, 2020 - 2007, 100% Syrah, from Ciel de Cheval... if you like a soft delicate bottle of wine, this might not be your best choice. However if you like a big ass, big taste full throttle wine... come on down...Drinking unbelievable right now. Big , inky black and blue fruit hitting you right in the face...just simply delicious. Looks like it still has plenty of life..

November 6, 2019 - This wine has knit together beautifully. Lots of blue and black fruits, a nice savory note, and still has good structure. It made me sit up and take notice.
