eppery nose with candied dark cherry. ham, and sun-baked soil. Rich palate of black plum, dark chocolate and vibrant dried mint and dried herbs. Smooth, polished finish with dry red fruit and long notes of earth and oak. It's clearly fading a but was still drinking really well.

Decent Cali Syrah, still very dark. Syrah nose and oak pretty much integrated. Initially found it flabby with soft sweet fruit and not much structure....with time, a little more acid and pleasant, although I heavier style than I would prefer 90 or so score

Nice.... integrated raspberry, tar, flowers, spice, and cassis. Lots of sediment. Age has done this well!

waited too long - darn. Started to turn down. Despite that, still had a great mouthful of fruit.
