Big jammy nose. Dark color. Blackberry, grass field, and pepper. Touch to much acid today. Overall pretty good.

Rich deep berry and plum fruit a la bevan. Lush tannin. Black pepper, violet, vanilla and a hint of meat. Decadent!

Very energetic wine. Blind, I would be in The Rhone valley. Bright berry fruit with great floral. Long, refreshing finish.

Medium side of inky, deep huckleberry, spiced charcuterie tones but the fruit steals the show here.

Absolutely lovely balance tonight... Drinking very well. Fruit, meaty, spice, fine grain tannins... Fantastic!

My last of the 3 bottles, and probably the most balanced bottle of the 3. Meaty and spicy with plenty of bright cherry fruits. Powerful with a gentle touch. Candied long finish.
What a gem! Unfortunately the winery seems to cease operation. Wonder who owns the Cardiac Hill vineyard, considered by many one of the greatest sites for Syrah in California.
