On downward slope but still had enough fruit left and a bit of acid to be enjoyable.

On the nose, explosion on blue and purple florals. Ripe, lush; blackberries, black raspberries & black plum. Sweet tarry notes, black licorice, dark rich soil with crushed rocks, pepper, light vanilla & cinnamon with lavender & purple florals.

On the palate; ruby, ripe, dark currants, blackberries, black raspberries, black plum. Big tarry notes, black licorice, dark rich soil with crushed rocks, big dark, negro rocky minerals, tough leather, pepper, light vanilla & cinnamon with lavender & purple florals. Big round acidity, ripe fruits and heavy driven mineral finish. This one needs 8–10 years in bottle.

Berry aromas with notes of chocolate, tobacco, fennel. Jammy blackberry and blueberry flavors, good acidity and length. Very balanced and therefore the 15% abv is unnoticeable (until you're halfway into the bottle). A very good new world Syrah.
