Out of a magnum, great crowd pleaser. Excellent with brisket.

[En magnum] Quite ripe Syrah/Grenache blend this vintage (15%), drinks well tonight, but better to drink young than to age.

Jan 18th, 2025Somewhat closed aromatics even after 2 hours aeration, but rich, ripe, explosive redfruits and dark fruits, some tannins remain, long finish, very fine Syrah!!

Sep 4th, 2016En magnum. Cork was a little off, I’m pretty sensitive to it, rich, ripe, Syrah and Grenache, medium-long finish, would have rated higher if cork was pristine.

Aug 14th, 2021En magnum. Lovely older redfruit aromas and flavors, nicely ripe, good balance, the Grenache adds some mineral notes, very good!!

Strange wine 🤔, has the great nose of an Alban or Washington Syrah but tastes like a sweetened Caymus & Austin Hope
