Nice color, full-bodied Syrah with notes of berry and cherry. A real treat for dinner two nights in a row. Tannins mellowed by age but not gone. I have another bottle in the cellar which I am anticipating.

A floral and mineral version of Syrah that reminds me a little bit of some St. Josephs I've tasted. Pretty and tasty, still with robust tannins. A hint of an aftertaste on the finish that I couldn't place, but didn't really like. I'd say given this 5-10 years and try it then. Has potential, but didn't show great.

Lovely pure fruit. Tart w/ good acidity. Still evolving, but very drinkable now

Improved a great deal with a couple of years' rest. Fruity and complex.

Complex, not too fruity. Surprisingly good. Not cheap though
