Damn. This is delicious and in an amazing spot 😍

It has effusive aromas & flavors black cherry preserves, dried fig, prune, rose, graphite, coffee grounds, blackberry bramble, licorice, leather, tobacco, peat, clove, star anise, cardamom, cured meat, black peppercorn, wet earth, mushroom, potting soil, balsamic glaze..

On the palate it’s dry with high - barely so - alcohol (14% ABV). The acidity is lovely and energetic. Tannins are silky and well-integrated.

100% Syrah from Hermitage hill, biodynamic and lower intervention in the winery. Textured and deep.

Delicious !!!!

Sitting in Prague with my wife loving this red wine. It’s been warm and we have been drinking much more white wine than we typically do. Nice to get back to a delicious red wine. I recommend this wine. Do not get it by the glass, get a bottle. — 25 days ago

Lovely weight and taut. Mellowed sweetness with good length and a nice bit of pop on the end. Classic. — 3 months ago

Wow. The timing and oxygen on this bottle requires precision.

At opening there is some alcohol and weirdness that needs to blow off.

Within about 20-30 mins - the wine settles down and then it delivers just as you’d expect. Beautiful flavors.

Leave it out an hour and it begins to turn a bit. — 2 months ago

2016 vintage. Last tasted 06.10.22 (9.4). Medium-heavy body now. Decanted and tasted after 30 mins. A slight amount of sed. Earth, shrooms, motor oil, fudge, dark plum and gaminess all there for the taking. Just starting to stretch its legs out. 05.22.25. — 3 months ago
