  5/20/2020 - S-F Likes this wine: 93 Points

  I'm taking some antihistamine nose spray thingy which messes with my nose, so can't say what it smells like - but it's a clean, crisp smell, no barn or funk. After about 1hr decant: Initially it comes off a little light in the attack, but right after starts filling out and covering the walls. I get a little bit of dried meats, leather and deep fruit. The funny thing is that the fruit comes "late", not early, as is usual. It's more like a back of the throat fruit sensation, if that at all makes sense. It's not at all heavy or cloying, but it's certainly still a Syrah. I detect very little oak. Absolutely wonderful. On the back label it says from only produced 65 cases. I'm frankly shocked any of it is left after so much time. This is great, expressive, but not showy, CA new generation winemaking.
