Decanted 1 hr. ahead. Inky garnet color. Nice nose of blueberries, cherries, bramble. Firm and intense on the palate, full-bodied, with cherry flavors leading over rocks & minerals. It's strong stuff overall. Finishes with light grip, medium tannins. This one is a bit of a monster, but a firm monster. Not recognizably syrah, but then, what is syrah at $18 a bottle?

it was okay on the first day. Maybe it will be better. We had the 2007 vintage about 2 years ago and it was fabulous. It might be that I am expecting same experience.

Good value for the money. Workmans-like Syrah. An everyday wine to go to for BBQ, pork, burgers, steaks.

Very good without decanting. Nice dark fruit flavors. Not as full body as some higher price syrah. But very good for price point.
