  A bit strange - almnost overwhelming nutmeg, cinnamon and potpourri on the nose, better on the pallet and eventually, when the nose settled down, a nice wine - a decant would have been a good idea.

  PnD.
  
  Huge potpourri and liquorice all sorts notes.
  
  Ripe and racy.
  
  A very busy wine. Johnsh has a good note. I like it a bit more. Would be a good match with lamb chops tikka popsicles.

  中宝石红偏紫色，这酒的味道实在太怪了，有一种奇怪的很难描述的味道，类似某种草本、香蕉水或者油漆，还有李子的果香，一些香料感，入口酸度很高，酒液咸，有感矿物，单宁紧涩，量大，糊一嘴，颗粒很细，沙状，胡椒和草本的香气，酒体中等偏轻，口感很水，中后段掉得比较快，余味红黑果带着些许木质香气。

  An interesting cool climate style Syrah, cofermented with Gruner skins. Lots of pepper and bacon on the refreshing, light to medium bodied Syrah. Quite idiosyncratic, but I found it hard to drink more than a couple of glasses, as the wine only sang one strong note (B).
