Solid. Dark fruit, aggressive oak tannins. Good with barbecue.

@Delectable Wine This is the EXT Cuvee.
Big, extracted, and a bit muddled and flat upon opening. We will revisit after it has some time to air

Cherry, cedar and cumin on the nose and palate, bright acidity, great with the pork tenderloin cassoulet, nice texture and fine tannins. Delish.

2009v. Solid wine. Needs a bit of airtime or decanterization to fully experience the cabotization of your palate. Bring on the noise!!!

Savory and smokey bacon. Syrah might be Humboldt's 2nd best crop.

Great weekday drinker. Only a slight hint of the olive meaty pepper qualities I love in a N Rhone.
