Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This 100% Syrah is thick and intense with strong black fruit flavors lifted by accents of anise and milk chocolate. The mouth is full of ripe plum and cherry flavors, with well-integrated tannins and a solid, juicy finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This 95% Syrah wine (with 5% Grenache) is thick and hearty with a strong black fruit core augmented by nuances of flinty minerality, dark chocolate, tobacco and leather. Chewy and firm in the mouth with assertive tannins that linger through the finish. It could use some time to integrate and mellow; try after 2012.
