Love drinking Syrah with friends who drink (or make) way more than I do. This week was full of both CA and France. Drank Clape's lesser Cornas (not really lesser in 2009) over two days.

Cassis, Chocolate, dark forrest berries, black plum, cedar, vegetal. High tannins and good to go for another 10 years!

It took a while to come around after decanting, but the tiny bit of Brett blew off and was tasting great. 👍🏼
