Out of the bottle a blackberry jam bomb, but delicious, like a dessert wine. With air the chalky tannins gain strength. After an hour additional flavors of spruce and baking chocolate. Not real food friendly but would pair well with a blue cheese burger and truffle fries. A little chewy, but excellent depth of flavor.

Moderate earthy syrah nose. Very well balanced, relatively full bodied with nice fruit and jammy acid and tannins.

Not at all what I expected sadly. Very little fruit I guess it's all gone as of 2023. Chalky tannins and a bit flat
Mouthfeel is Syrah, if it weren't for the label I would never have guessed petite syrah which I love
I guess this was a wine to drink within a few years of bottling. Based on this I would not buy it again

Lovely full spicy earthy fruity nose. Wine is chalky with mostly mid palate fruit and acidity, a flat finish, but enjoyable.

Delicious and interesting blend of petite sirah and Syrah. Dark red, black cherry and blackberry fruit with moderate tannins.
