stewed dark fruits and poo on the nose. plum and oak on the nose (reminds me of a Little cab, not sure why) tannic, yet thin initially on the palate. opens with blackberry on the palate. always good QPR. 88-89

Very smooth with a nice finish. Good fruit and a subtle floral aspect, perhaps hints of white pepper. Drank right after opening, paired w/ravioli and a red pasta sauce.

Previous negative comments must have drank this one too early. Big nose, very fruity. Very nice syrah.

complex dark blue and black berry, well integrated cigar box and sous bois, medium acidity; not much pepper; surprisingly nice
