1808 in 2025. lol. Just to consume something this old and with this much history. Recorked in 2015. Opened with a Durand. This was filmed. I was nervous for sure.

Of course, the acidity, alcohol and sugar never leave a wine, but I was shocked, this had such flavor- true to the rare Terrantez grape, pronounced citrus, blood orange, bitter orange. Sweet upfront, bitter finish. Pincholin olives and tawny caramel. This wasn’t just palatable, but drinkable. Special experience.

‘12 in ‘25. Syrah AF, Cherries and blood.

Bourbon cherry, fennel, baking spices. Smooth. Savory red meat/venison.

Tasted through a vertical of all their Syrahs in their wine makers office. ‘12 (and ‘16) were beautiful. Currently vintage needs more time.
