Too early. Wine is closed, even on day two. What is there is promising. Dense fruit, with sour cherries dominating. Put this aside for a year or two.
Re-edit a week (!) later (as I did not complete the bottle last weekend): Arguably better, more mellow. Does not change my first judgement but does tell me this is a great wine. Added rating of 92 for now but can see why RPs Stephan Rheinhardt likes this.

This is my first syrah from Austria and it did not disappoint.
This is young, to be sure, but this is very akin to a very decent N Rhone.
This should improve for another 5-10 years.
