Awesome Syrah spiciness with with a structural frame tight enough to almost feel Rhône-like. Drinking well now & showing some leathery evolution but has plenty of depth of blackberry fruit to hold on another 2-4 years with ease.

Oh, my, this is good! Classic grilled meat nose, exceptional balance. Perhaps a bit restrained - but is that a bad thing? Could drink all night.

Great nose with strong dark fruits. Tight, but opened up after a bit. Spicy palate with a strong finish.
