@TheSkip this will be right up your alley.
Fun tasting at Weygandt Wines with John Lockwood. The last of four wines being poured.
Deep ruby red. Layered nose with iron from the get go with some spices, and dark red berries, a nice savory backend as well. Medium tannins (6.5/10) and medium plus bodied. Complex palate with lavender, black cherries, black olives and twigs. Solid acidity with dark gravel in the dry lingering finish. Definitely more of a Northern Rhone style Syrah. Drink till 2026
This wine is made up of 100% Syrah. 100% whole cluster and aged in neutral oak barrels (225L) for 12 months. Only 13.5% alcohol.

Very dark northern Rhone style Syrah. Banana nose. Low %. Tart with a ton of tannins. Black ☕️ tea. Blueberry. Unspitable a beautiful wine!

Juicy, persistent overachiever. Ribs were a great match. Wish I could get more in Nippon.

This guy kills me. Fresh approachable Syrah with blue fruit and remarkable depth.

One sniff and I can already tell. That is going to be good. Real good. Like scary good. Not messing around good. Good in the way that winning the lottery would be good.
