Dec 13th, 2014Dark purple. Aromas of oil cured black olives, grapefruit rind and wet stone!! This smells way less ripe than the alc would lead me to believe. Was delicious with roasted pork belly and root vegetable gratin.

Nov 12th, 2014Kind of crazy wine. Inky purple with nose of smoke, tar, matchstick. Hugely ripe Syrah with both big acid and big tannins.
