The wine presents as ruby on the rim and graduating toward a crimson center. Nose of plum, cherry, blackberry, and licorice. By the finish, black pepper and tar chime in. The tightness of the wine and angular aspect of the tannins present a bit raw on the finish. Should have decanted this. Consumed over three (3) days. Only a few grains of sediment. 14.4% alc. With grilled (beef) rib eyes and mushrooms. 10.08.22. Recommended.

Drank well when first opened with a nice balance but after 2 hrs had developed a unpleasant acidity. Pumped down over night and the acidity had blown off and while not sophisticated was nice. Hard to tell if this is over the peak or in a dumb period.

Drinking nicely but somewhat underwhelming-drink now.

It’s lost the great peppery Syrah notes but the Grenache has not really kicked in with the dark fruit profile. Little bit underwhelming
