Knockout old school Syrah from the northern Rhône. Funky as hell even after two hours in the decanter but after that began to open up very nicely indeed. Was at its best on the second night.

At a really nice spot, nice iron, mineral notes. Dirty Syrah in a good way.

Absolutely classic Northern Rhône Syrah. On the nose, brambly, peppery red fruit and some dried violets. In the mouth, bright acidity, good fruit, more black pepper, solid mid-palate and some grippy tannins. Long finish. At 25 dollars I wish I had bought a case. Could easily age 10 years plus.

Fruity, lots of flavour, light mouthfeel - seemed more like a pinot while drinking. JB wine
