  Purple, lovely nose, spice, touch of smoke, and black fruit. Cherry, smoke, meat, not a big fruity Sarah but all of the elements fit together to make a very enjoyable drink.

  Tasted blind and went straight for the Style and called it as on a 50/50 shot with an SQN.
  Big wine, bright , full energy, rich , massive wine. A very specific style with a noticeable 15.3% alc ( maybe the diff of Alban and SQN is that in SQN the alcohol is never that noticeable) . This is probably even bigger than his other Syrah bottlings. 93 and frankly not sure where this goes from here as in if time is a friend or foe once it robs away the freshness of it .

  Deep and dark. Double decanted 4 hours prior. Smoke and spice and long-long finish. Terrific!

  Way too young. Deep and brooding, not giving much. Needs a lot, a ton, of time.

  Spectacular. Popped and poured for Valentine's dinner at one of our local restaurants. Typical Alban style but more of it. Drinking beautifully now, which was a pleasant surprise.
