End of life for this particular bottle. Had a slight hint of cork taint but the wine once in decanter was really good. Fully. A la Pax Mahle style back then.

In magnum. Great Syrah. Need to buy more. Though I think Production stopped a few years ago

Still black and meaty! Super savory in the mouth. Make sure to drink it with an aged ribeye off a hot Mesquite grill.

Deep ruby Cole with no brown edges, nose of black cherry with vanilla & cassis; body still has tannic structure which perfectly hold there cherry and cassis together. This wine could last longer, but it's great right now. A perfect food wine
