Smoked eucalyptus and gamey.
Blackberry, dark plum, tha basil, eucalyptus. mint, anise, layer upon layers of gorgeous fruit, with herbs dancing with great pagan mystery, underneath those waves.
This is one of those wines that hits every bit of what you want a more expensive bottle to be.
Priced to buy by the case as a every nighter.

So don't agree on 93 pts from Parker. Large wine. Some heat. But like the fruit. So good showing from a QPR standpoint. Thanks #garagiste — 7 years ago

Tannic upon opening, softened to sweet fig — 9 years ago
Great color, full bodied, and unapologetic. Smoke, anise and bark on the nose. Fruit forward, but in a mature and controlled way. Great smoke, spice and brick dust gives it character. Sandy tannins and a great finish. Definitely food wine. — 9 years ago

Great for the price. Peppery but lighter for a spicy wine. BY — 6 years ago
Dark purple body, opaque, thin rim. Nose is a little hot, but also has loads of fruit, Cherry and maybe citrus? Can't tell if there is mint or if that's the alcohol. Oak and leather become stronger sensations over time. Palate has good acidity, understated tannins. But then tannins start to dominate the finish. This wine develops over time and each sip is a little different from the previous one. I'm hooked! — 7 years ago

The Syrah definitely shows up. Adds some weight and a little olive tapenade. seemed to have a little new oak. — 3 years ago
