a surprisingly great bottle of wine; the nose was inviting and aromatic; the fruit up front was nicely balanced with pleasant acidity; full & complex on the palate; and another syrah with a terrific finish. And I have a couple more to enjoy; my spouse says "...let's get busy and open the others; it's perfect now!" Well done, Prive!

This is a "pleasant wine" We don't detect anything hot about the flavors. The dark fruit and acid are nicely balanced, not much complexity but it does have a good spicy fruit flavor and a long finish. And it has a pretty color, nice and dark with ruby highlights.

No detailed notes. Tasted horribly off balance and hot compared to other syrahs tonight. Not to my taste.
