10' Alban Vineyards Reva Syrah. I decanted it for 5 hours. Please wait a few years before opening a bottle. John is a genius!!!

Super deep garnet red. Nose is coated in olives and light red cherries. The palate is rounded and layered, delicious. Tons of red berries on the palate. Needs more time on the palate.

Big!!! Tons of dark fruit, oak and alcohol. Maybe with a ribeye or lamb roast, definitely needs meat.
