It's a DAG, so no surprise at the lovely earth, red fruit, violet and a little barnyard on the nose. I remember this being more sumptuous tasting it a few times over the years, but this had a definite acid streak in it, along with the meat, red fruit, a little blueberry and bramble. I believe that portends interesting things over time. Today was Excellent.

This was really good - no notes as drunk at Christmas dinner. It did have resolved tannins and exhibited the savory side of Syrah. Adieu, 2007!

Return of the sumptuous syrah. Glorious violet, meat, berry and brushy aromas. More new world-leaning on the palate. Excellent to Outstanding.

well balanced with flavors of plums, licorice and raw meat. Keep a few more years.
