  This young Colgin Syrah ‘19 is breathtakingly beautiful. Deep, rich, dark, opaque, mammoth of a wine. Intense on the nose and palate. Sun baked flowers, roasted meats, dark berries, sautéed plums, briny olives, rich minerals, iodine, savoriness, tar and slight rubber. This has a lot going on. People compare it to old world and I agree. Chalky tannins, sandy acidity on long finish.

  2nd bottle. The favorite amongst an array of outstanding wines for our groups tonight. Similar notes to last tasting. Perhaps some plum skin fruit adding to the mix.

  Open that bottle night 2023.
  
  Herin is a wine that is built around exotic aromatics of smoked meats and stewing cabbage with the added tobacco leaf. Don't come looking for sweet fruit. It is such a unique flavor profile in mouth. There are layers of bacon, cured meats, bell pepper, bay leaf, and so much underbrush.
  
  The finish is sweet and a fruit profile that emerges only after the wine has been swallowed.
