More sound than last bottle. A violet-bomb if there ever was one.

Came apart after an hour. Flawed. But so bright and floral at start.

Really good stuff, especially for the price. Even better day 2. Thanks, @crushwineco!

SCEA La Tache is the name of the estate. No sulfur. Deep classic natural Syrah nose. Amazing. Great purity. 100% whole cluster. One month fermentation. Stunning. 1 gram of sulfur at the end.

Just a hint of black olive, ample fruit and a touch of menthol. Really hitting the spot tonight.

Typical meat and potato Syrah, well integrated - would it be worth taking up space in your cellar for years? Probably not.
