This is like your buddy who gets off work late and wants to catch up with everyone else...this hits hard and quick and envelops all the senses. Brash, decadent, luscious and powerful. Spanish Syrah that is full of oak, blueberries, milk chocolate, mint and nutmeg. Full throttle on the palate with unabashed authority. This wine is aged in Pappy Van Winkle barrels and comes with a screw cap. $35. This is your hedonistic, “just have a craving” type wine and it does its job.

16% but smooth out the gate love the fruit and the 20 year Pappy barrel for 18 months changes the whole wine. Love it

Too sticky sweet / fruity - some could love it but Southern Belle is a major NO for my taste buds

Sweeter than I usually like, but not so sweet that I don't like it

Really nice syrah that taste more like a merlot or red blend as it is not dry and rather full bodied and complex. I rated it a little low as the price is about $40

Very smooth and fruity but not too sweet. The aging in the Pappy barrels brings a wonderful aroma and great finish. Unbelievable bargain at under $20.
