  Decanted for 40 minutes with some slight sediment. The color was a deep violet. There was some initial "funk" that blew off during decantation to reveal deep aromas of dark red fruits, along with some blue and black fruits, and a touch of floral. All of these fruits showed on the medium to plus palate along with lots of spice and a dose of earth. The acidity was up to the challenge of balancing the fruit, and any tannins were fully integrated. Will probably hold for several more years.

  Nice wine here. Very floral nose with bacon too. The taste is a bit dry compared but good nonetheless

  Family blind tasting during virus lockdown. Medium Purple with medium meniscus. Wonderful aroma of raspberry and black fruit. Flavors of bacon, fresh soil and leather mix with the luscious fruit on the palate. Reasonably long finish shows balance between the acidity, smooth tannins and 14.5% alcohol.

  Drank this to celebrate the power going out for 30 hours due to winter storm Riley. Consistent with my notes from 11/2016. This is still drinking well and has years ahead of it if stored properly. Drink now or hold.

  Hints of iron, smoked meats and cherries on the nose, this is big and broad syrah backed by gorgeous acidity, the palate shows plums, peppercorn, cherries, licorice and blueberry flavors, this drinks nicely with a decant and will cellar well, I sense some tightness, very good match with Korean bbq kal-bi
