Mature, but not over-the-hill, this has tart berry and moist earth flavors and aromas. There is an element that reminds me of the 2007 BH Syrah Deux Vert, perhaps due to stem inclusion?

Nice and elegant, secondary and still a bit tannic. Sous bois and some black cherry in the background and a bunch of spice (maybe from 90% whole cluster??).

Not giving away much. Drink sooner rather than later. Blacker fruit, tea, a little spice, a little forest floor, low tannin, medium to low acidity. Easy to drink, but not to love. Hoping for a little more depth. Might be the vintage as I recall 2007 being leaner, but my experience is limited.

PNP. Fully mature. Black cherry and raspberry. Moist earthy and sous bois. Fresh, tart cherry finish. Drink now and over the next five years.
