Rich, lush; blackberries, black plum, blackberries, boysenberries, black pepper, grilled meats, leather, showing a little too much wood, lavender, violets. Acidity is high and the alcohol shows hot at this stage.

Over priced since there are other Syrahs out there that are just as good for less price but the wine is excellent. You need to allow for it to breathe or very lightly decant it.

Roses and raspberries on the nose. Black cherries on the front. Slightly astringent Tannic structure on the top of the mouth, with a smooth but mineral backend.
