This bottled was the most reduced of all the case I’ve had. With air it seemed to shut down more. Super weird

A bit on the feminine side: floral, light spice notes, soft bramble and plum fruit. Tart acid streak should give it a long life.

One of the most delicate syrahs I've ever had. Delicate acid, subtle red fruit. Very nice.
