I recall enjoying this, but unfortunately didn't take (or recall) more detailed notes. Looking forward to some different Reynvaans from 2010+ which I have yet to try.

Coravin # 1 - for the first 30 mins strong Cayuse sulfur funk that blows off for the most part. Pure blueberry compote, mellow tannins and a touch of earth. Delicious.

Last bottle of this wine and vintage, but probably the best we've had! Dark garnet, very slight brown at the edges. Fully mature. Deep, dark, earthy aromas, burnt wood, roasted meat. Full body, very round and smooth, blackberry flavors with French oak. No significant tannin. Soft long aftertaste, slightly hot on the finish. This is at its peak, no need to age it further, but it should hold for several more years. We liked it better than a 2010 Bionic Frog we drank the next evening. Ric

This is perfect now. Big fruit, Smokey aftertaste. Very smooth, but starting to lose some of its tannins. I'm going to drink my last one this year before it's too late

(Reynvaan Family Vineyards The Unnamed Syrah In the Rocks Vineyard Walla Walla Valley) A hugely aromatic, gamey, briny wine full of earth, iodine, umami, floral notes, and meat. Great depth and intensity of flavors with a textured feel. Has a backbone of tannins to hold it all together. Syrah co-fermented with Viognier.
