  Give this plenty of air and it opens up to a very textural Syrah with loads of freshness; this is barely middle aged. Nose is smoky black fruits, black pepper, olive, oak spice. Palate is creamy and mineral, with an herbaceous, peppery finish.

  Quick note: opened this up for Xmas, enjoyed off the pop for about 2 hours or so before it was drained; although tasty and quite quaffable, this bottle was fairly unremarkable overall and actually a step down from a recent 2013 Mixed Blacks Weill a Way. Should add it was properly cellared since arrival, no noticeable flaws although the tannins were far more pronounced than any of the other Expositions, 2012 included. With 2 bottles remaining, we'll see what the future holds but given the secondary for these bottles, it's going to be tough to justify opening another bottle should the experience end up being similar.

  Amazing, profound nose of smoke, bacon fat and black fruits. Dark and red fruits, green olive that fades with air, soft finish. I could just sniff it all night and get pleasure.

  Interesting cross section of views in the current TNs. I enjoyed this one immensely. Mootsie's flavor profile struck me as right on. More savory Provencal notes than California fruit but the fruit is there. Plenty mature for drinking now but age worthy.

  Needs a decant and even then, it still comes across young.
  With that being said, this wine presents an intriguing mix of dark fruit and layered notes of pepper, tapenade, smoke and earth. Vibrant and balanced.
  At the initial offering price, it’s a deal.
  I would let these sit for another 3-5 years and check in again. These are 20+ year wines.
