Mas Olivier
Faugères Syrah Blend
Not getting this one. Grabbed it at the store based on the rating and tasting note. I just can't get past the tannins - even on day 2. Completely overpowering the flavor profile. Which is too bad because it just eases across the palate and you can sense the potential. This is one that needs a couple years of cellar time. At least. I'm intrigued so will prob grab another bottle and wait it out.
