Blueberry and intense floral aromatics. Sous Bois and slight undercurrent of iron and game. I put this in burgundy on blinding - the Syrah was polished. Very well crafted.

Brings the Northern Rhone to the table, with just a little extra oomph - but you'd be hard pressed to pick this out of an old world lineup as the ringer. At 8, just starting to stretch out - excellent with a little brisket. Or a lot of brisket.

Northern rhone esque. Juicy with smoke undertones. Good acid. Velvet tannins. Potpourri. Great bottle age on current CO vintage. Impressed.
