Saturday, July 6, 2019 - Dark purple color. Nose is violet, olive, pepper, plum skin. Palate is medium bodied, high acid, medium-high tannin, very bright yet quite ripe red and purple juicy fruit. Very well constructed throughout the palate - some of these whole-cluster low-ripeness Syrah can tend toward the in.sipid but this has the bones to handle it. Ends grippy and full of raw almond 100% whole cluster, 18 months in neutral oak. Pax Mahle does a lot of fun experimental stuff but I come back for the Syrah. 12.3%, $60.
