I'm not a burgundy expert but this was sensational. I'm more a new world Pinot person, but this showed me It will payoff if I spend time learning about the complexity of the Burgundy region. — 9 years ago

What an exiting Syrah from Chile 🇨🇱. Complex, muscular red wine packed with an amazing core of red fruit. Give it time to open. — 9 years ago

I just killed a wine in its infancy 😱😱😱. This wine is truly amazing. So much power and elegance it is worth to save it for a few years. I do agree with everyone else 10 hours is the magic number. — 9 years ago

Awesome - obviously way to young to even guess its potential. When you combine an top notch vineyard with a powerful vintage you expect greatness. This wine met the expectation and it will be a please to revisit in 10 years. Tasted blind. — 9 years ago

Today it tasted very different and it felt kind of restraint. Nose not showing the beautiful black / red fruit bouquet that made me felt in love with this wine. Very good don't get me wrong but not at this price range. — 9 years ago

Insanely good, so powerful with a terrific structure. The nose so impressive but yet so young. This wine needs massive time to develop. After 6 hours decanted it held strong. It's a shame Schrader increased the price of these wines. But low yields, high demand and awesome winemaker will do that 🤔. Still *good* price when you compare wines at the same level. — 9 years ago
