99% Syrah and 1% Grenache. Starting to lose its fruit. Some dusty tannins hanging on but I would drink up.

Plum, purple fresh fruit, dark berries, slightly tangy. Not too much oak and good balance. Very good.

Definitely reflects the more savory side of Syrah. A touch of wet stone and charcoal. Complex nose. I think this needs a bit more time. Tannins are still hanging strong.

I expected better. I have a couple bottles left and will revisit, so all may not yet be lost. Most of what this wine gives you is on the nose: oak, charcoal, black licorice. Mouth feel is thinner than you'd expect given the prominence of the nose, the deep black color and knowing it's essentially all syrah. Solid, but unspectacular.
