Last tasted 8 months ago. Fully mature, concentrated black fruits, powerful aromas but some complexity. Light tannins. Faded a bit the second night. Would not hold any longer. Ric

Not as good as my last bottle, and I question how much longer this vintage will go. However still great CA Syrah. Not as crazy as WA, smoother, but still with that great Syrah fruit and earth. Nice wine.

Dark crimson color. Ripe plum and earth nose. First taste especially was awesome. Smooth, silky, tobacco and blue / black fruit. Full body, mouth coating. Evolved over time, getting deeper flavored, but that first taste was the cat's meow. This is drinking well now but I don't think it will get better. Its a big CA Syrah, without a stank, but with great flavor and easy to drink. If it had the stank it could pass for a WA Syrah. Makes me want to see what some of the recent vintages are doing. I'll research them.

Something off about this bottle if other notes are to be believed...not corked...but not at all close to what is promised by others

Dark berries, leather and spice. Structured and balanced. Full bodied. Smooth, rich and mouth filling with long finish.
