Very dark, almost black, and very jammy. Too much for me, this is syrupy.

Fruit Flavors: black cherries, raspberries
Other flavors: caramel and baking spices
Body: Full
Alcohol: High (14.8%)
On the second day the wine became much smoother and harmonious.

Great value Syrah showing new world fruit with an old world savory backbone. Juicy blueberries with black pepper, lavender, and a hint of tobacco.

Adequate - falls between a bargain and good Syrah. It’s okay, but a little pricey for what it is. Decent Syrah at a normal price. I’d buy again if I couldn’t find a sub-$25 bottle I knew we’d like.

Chunky blueberry cobbler, maybe a touch one dimensional but for the price it’s excellent. Buy a case
