I had 2 or 3 bottles of this in last few years & was consistently underwhelmed, was a disjointed, ugly duckling. Well, the ugly phase is over. Gorgeous deep black currant color w red rim. Resolute & length, medium weight. Game, currants, & cooked herbs (sage?). Uber enjoyable w beef stew & potato pie. Threw off alot of sediment- should have decanted, but luckily was a good pour

Still quite young.... savory end of Syrah, with some gamy funk, iron and cedar... pretty aromatic.

The charmer. Favorite of the flight. Leads with nice sweetness and bacon/smoke. Nice balance of ripeness and acid. Very pleasant and happy. Enjoyed by all.
