This wine was a special treat. It has wonderful stonefruit flavours along with cassis. Unlike other Syrahs aged in oak, this wine losses all of the flavours that come with oak; which to my surprise, brings forward more fruit flavours without being overly jammy or tart. Alternatively, it has subtle flavors of clay and flint. Amazing!

excellent. I let the wine open for about an hour and a half in my decanter.
