Checking in, similar notes to LBT. It’s rich and concentrated fruit is beginning to settle in, picking up more savory/spice components coming through. The tannins are especially refined and harmonizing well in this unctuous and seductive Cornas

Black cherry liquor, candied plum, cool blackberry, lavender pastille, olive caramel, bacon fat, cool herbs, woodsmoke, fine layers of hung meat and forest notes. Fruit is bouyant, juicy and offers immense pleasure while its wild side adds dimension. To me there is a perfect amount of richly layered fruit and palate weight with proper acid balance to cut it all back. Tannins are ripe, yet supportive.

Deep and funky flavor - wow. Not what I would drink every day but I enjoyed it none the less.

Great steak wine. A fair bit of oak but classic broad Syrah flavors
