There was a moderate barnyard / funk which blew off after 15 or 20 minutes. This delicious wine evolved over the course of the evening into a contemplative dark beauty . I picked up secondary flavors of subtle licorice root, beets and saline Nicoise olive dominating the fading primary mixed berries. The perfect wine for this snowed in occasion .

What a beautiful wine this morfed into! Deep and complex with notes of dark red fruit, spice, and a bit of pepper. Nice nose of sweet fruit. Very full in the mouth with a very pleasant aftertaste. It's really drinking nicely now.

Very nice wine. This one needs some breathing time before it starts showing much. Comments from others about the nose are fairly accurate. This wine tastes much different in style from a CA syrah. Much more minerality comes through with this one. We had no trouble finishing this bottle!
