Gripping tight tannins, leather, bramble, in ripe blueberry, hint of vanilla, green. Too young yet. Lay it down. A couple years should do it.

Solid and accessible Syrah with hints of white pepper, allspice and roasted meat.

Good fruit ,acids and decent completely. It falls off a bit on the back . I expected a bit more body and tannin structure coming out of Rutherford.

Needed to be decanted. After decanting the tannins settled down. Much more prominent fruity smells enhanced by the presumably higher alcohol. Smoky and leathery.
