  Dark colored Syrah with lots of black pepper, rock, blackberry, and funk. Impressive.

  Vastly different experience than the other notes. This was bought end of 2018 direct from Cayuse. This wine has another 15 years easy. Funk, bacon fat, and stewed meat galore. A really good Cayuse. Would have guessed a Cornas if blind. Performed better than I thought. I liked it!

  Was allocated one of these via Cayuse cellar release sale. Parker says 89/Drink by 2011 so I PnP'd as soon as this arrived.
  
  Fairly one dimensional at first. Not "gone" by any measure but none of the traditional Cayuse funk that typified vintages from this period.
  
  Over time, nose opened up a bit with notes of pumpkin spice.
  
  Interesting wine but not worth the $$$ for this bottle

  Pnp'ed. Immediately it's chocolate and coffee and a very dark fruit. With time I get more of a boysenberry flavor to it (although still kindof chocolate covered). In a great drinking window, but also not really going anywhere soon. Very tasty.

  Gorgeous nose of fruit and herbs. Firm structure, little primary fruit at this point, long mineral finish.
