Lean, rocky, and with the impetuous cassis and pepper of a youngster. In 5 years, watch out.

This is an amazing wine! It is perfect with dark chocolate, a nice hearty cheese or it can stand alone. The 2010 has definitely had time to age and soften perfectly.

This was stellar! Classic Syrah and a great amount of reduction....I look forward to seeing the other ones in my cellar develop.

Took a little while to open up but once it did it became a very well balanced CA Syrah. Smooth and slightly fruit forward.
