Fantastic wine. Shared with several cab drinkers that enjoyed the syrah flavors, but with the cab cutting the typical jammyness of some syrahs. I, as a rhone drinker, felt the syrah cut the typical strong tannins of the cab. Either way, all felt that this combination really works well and is extremely well integrated. Typical Cab dark fruit with some syrah pepper and smoke. Need to find more!

Aromas of chocolate, graphite and blackberry. Rich but balanced flavors of dark red fruit, smoked meat, tobacco, and green peppercorn. Unique and impressive.

From Magnum with about a 2-hour decant. Big fruit and ample tannins integrating well. Smoke, plum and dark cherries. Long finish.

Decent fruit (both cherries and sour cherries) but a bit rough around the edges.

Unreal blend. Super dark, great nose, dark fruit, chocolate, wood.
