  Meaty nose full of heft... Good peppery leather with a clean finish... Excellent wine

  Second bottle was better than the first. Full body, even flavors. I enjoyed this.

  I didn't have high expectations for this wine - CA Syrah is something of a hit-or-miss with me. (Rubber tire, anyone?) However, I was pleasantly surprised at this wine. Smooth, fruity, dark... it would go well with grilled meat or by itself.
  
  One note about the color - I've never had a wine turn my mouth and tongue so purple. It's almost as if coloring was added, and came out when consumed. Besides that, it's a wonderful wine for the QPR!

  Opened without much character other than a mineral finish. Left half bottle open in frig overnight and was better in dark fruit, with less mineral pronouncement.
  The wine looks Purple colored. The legs are Medium. It smells like Blackberry, Black currant (cassis), Plum, Mineral, Stoniness, and Diesel.

  Second of two bottles. Better than the first, but still not good. Cheap, oversweet and out of balance with a bitter finish.
