  Consistent with my previous note....such a fantastic wine. I don't even think it is in its prime drinking window. Just beautiful!
  
  Previous note: As other have stated, if Alban is your style this wine is at the top of the list. Such an incredible wine. Dark, brooding, with the typical blueberry profile I love so much of Alban Syrah's. Nearly a 10 y/o wine and it has many years ahead of it. Decant for 30-45 mins.

  Huge wine. Did not offer much on the nose or palate upon opening, and was somewhat one dimensional. Dark fruits all the way. However, on Night 2 the wine was quite balanced and impressive. Wine is young with many years to go. I prefer Reva, but that is personal preference (along with the much better price point).

  Incredible, but could have used a little longer decant than 45 minutes before starting as it was 98-99 at last sip

  At the 10 year mark, drinking very young. No discernible signs of any age. Just as great as my last note. Perfect wine for a cold, blustery night with a fire going. Delish.
