  Sturdy and full bodied but at the same time soft and elegant. It is drinking really really great right now. Still good for a couple more years at least before it starts falling off. Have with food but just this with some great cheese worked for us.

  Solid well made 89-90 point cali Syrah. Smooth with cedar,spice, smoke notes. Seems it will age nicely but certainly ready to drink now. I have a few left to test that theory.

  Less mineral than the previous vintage but still evocative.

  Intense, dark, and rich; one of those bottles that I've stored on its side with a purple-end cork--better than what I recall from previous tastings.
