Old world philosophy and Sonoma terroir. Low brix, whole clusters, and cool climate. All things I love. Tasty now, but will evolve for a few more years.

It’s in such a great place right now. Nose jam packed with fresh dark fruit, palate is already showing some beautiful secondary development. Earthy and lots of iron and smoky fatty bacon.

Great pair for the hanger steaks. Good body, nice slightly thick finish.

Decanted and paired this amazing @PaxMahle #Syrah with a mixed lamb grill. The pairing so good it was almost erotic. It caressed every wine erogenous zone. The climax came in the rich complex mid-palate and rolled over to a soft cuddling finish.

Baked fig, gamey dried meat, slight pepper. Good mouthfeel, slightly austere but complex. Needs time or air.

It ain't the Northern Rhone doppelganger that I was promised, but still plenty to love in this 2010 bottle.
