Quick belated note. My bottle was slightly corked/flawed, yet it exhibited depth and much interest on the nose with an energetic, verve and clarity on the palate. Regardless of any concerns with the bottle, I finished it resolute to purchase more. This was the best Valenti Syrah that I've tried to date, again saying it is much. 92 pts. With plenty of room to improve.

tons of energy and potential, tight aroma, fleshy plum and peppercorn on the nose, bright and racy acidity, youthful and tightly bound, juicy, red berry, red plum and mineral, a refreshing style of syrah, could use a few years to better express the tasty nuances, nice with short rib stew

Nine months after the prior: lots of energy still, showing trademark white ground pepper. Highly enjoyable over three nights, just slightly chilled.
