2004 Pax Syrah Griffin's Lair

Community Tasting Note

Does not like this wine:

79 Points

Tuesday, May 1, 2018 - Excited for the 16 Hillsides getting a trip digg...so I was inspired to open one of the few Pax I have left from the old days...A BIG fan back in the day...love the ooozzzze monster! Cork in perfect condition...nose...BEAUTIFUL smoke reduction, meat, tar, crushed berries...Alban came to mind. This looks promising! Nope...shattered dreams! In the mouth we have harsh dry tannins, disjointed alc burn, sour plum skin...not good unfortunately. Disappointed, as I've had some really good older Pax that have held up really well...even the 05 Rose' was kickin last year. Still, I'm looking forward to trying some of the "new" Pax wines.
