2nd of 3. Big improvement over the first one 18 months ago, which was good but not great. This is really coming into its own now. Amazing nose, Black currant on the palate and a long finish. Nicely balanced wine overall, even a little restrained for this blend.

What a great expression of Syrah. Perfect mix of funk and fruit. Really hard to stop drinking. My first time having this and opened a bottle early to see what I had. Was not expecting it to be this wide open and giving so much pleasure. Will these shut down or do they typically always drink this well?
Decanted 3 hours with lots of aeration. A couple steps above a 14 we drank 6 months ago and maybe even drinking at a baby Bond level. This has many years of life left but has entered it’s early drinking window.
