This Syrah is almost perfect. It is filled with dark berries, vanilla and a touch of earth. It sounds sweet, but it was neither cloying or heavy in the least. Just a brilliant, velvety mouthfeel and a 30 second finish.

This was a fun wine. I played "guess that grape" with friends and no one could. The acid in this has faded leaving a nice cherry and oak flavor. Medium body with a short finish but I kept reaching for more.

This is drinking great right now. Notes of plum, cocoa, berries, eucalyptus and leather. Full bodied with a decent finish.
