Very dark with ruby highlights. Spice, blueberry, cedar and a trace of funk on the nose. Full bodied, with black pepper, loganberries, black cherries, herbs, sweet grainy tannins, leather, tobacco, smoke, and a long, ever changing finish. An average entry but a wonderful finish.

Notes not made at time but the long and short is that it's a good value at the price paid. Syrah from Napa can vary from excellent N. Rhone like to jammy Shiraz like. I would put this in the range of a good C-H, with grippy tannins and black fruit like sloes and blackberries. Some savory notes that could portend a future but seems more "drink now"

I was expecting more and we drank this the same time as a we did a nice aged Aussie Shiraz. A good wine but not fully together

Bottle 4 of 5. Prime drinking window now. No decant. Dark, ripe berries with a touch of tobacco. Very nice.
