Coccinelle Vineyard Syrah
Second time having this one in the last few weeks, this bottle didn’t show quite as fresh as the previous but still had layers of mature fruit to unwind over several hours.

Nov 4th, 2017Amazing how a little bottle age can really turn a "dumb" wine around. Great smoky meaty fruit aromas. Spicy black fruit, leather, but the acidity is still a little disjointed.

Feb 8th, 2015A bit past its prime, still fruity with good acid and still a little chewy. Will be good for some time.
