A little smoke and bacon fat on the nose upon opening. Silky smooth on the palate with lots of fruit left. Nice finish showing that Oregon Syrah from a good producer can age very well. I'd love to have a few more of these in the cellar to enjoy over the next probably five years.

Dpolivy nailed the description. Glad I have access to more. With 5 at our table, it did not last past tonight. Will have to try it again and see how it is on day two and three.

A big hit with Filet Mignons at a 91st birthday dinner. Still lots of fruit and good tannins. Still lots of life in this one.
