Michigan Syrah! Believe this was a special [small] production wine and it was really impressive - very Old World style reminiscent of a Crozes with barnyard funk and meat and white pepper and blue/black fruit, camphor and spice and damp soil - all over the place, evolving, lighter weight but a ton of flavors, decent acidity too but bit abrupt on finish. Unexpected surprises from historic American winery.
