Grenache and Syrah blend-the Grenache make this wine so bright and fresh and prevents the Syrah from creating a syrupy blend. unfolds after 30min in the decanter...gamey element fades to crushed black and blue fruit both on the nose and palate. Long sweet finish that shows great acid and tannins that are sweet as the fruit. Wonderful.

Magnum. This might have been better any other night but again, it got lost with everything surrounding it.

The Syrah really shows. Dark and concentrated. 1 hr decanted and starts to open with smokey gamey fig flavors

Definitely did not suck. Showing its age well, a burnished red fruit thing going on.

Our journey now darks a dark murky turn towards the castle of the pope. This is going to be good at 11 yrs old
