A pleasant surprise for me as the wine crossed its 14 years, far beyond the suggested drink dates - a fair Q/P.. - deep dark red colour, spicy smell, round in mouth all in, easy going

Just at perfect point of maturity from my POV. STill robust colour, strong anise and herb flow with strong core of mixed red and black fruits. Medium to heavy weight and decent length, feels like good VFM.

Cork crumbled when opening. While salvageable the bottle was a disappointment, especially since the first bottle was so good. Unfortunately, for this Domaine, the wine outlasts the cork.

Wonderful Syrah. Many years since I had the last of this series and it has aged nicely taking off the edeges.

Heavy 14.5% but richly fruited, fully mature and rather good
