Drank last of these with Elle home for a tasting (since she gifted to me). Similar to previous bottle, incredibly floral with lots of rubber and asphalt on both nose and palette.
Garnet, medium+ meniscus. Raspberry, black cherry and black currant are the fruits under the anise, bramble, tobacco and did I mention rubber/asphalt. Interesting wine

Had Elle purchase this for me for xmas. VERY aromatic, perhaps one of the strongest/most pungent nose ever. Nose was Licorice, asphalt, rubber, strong floral notes as well along with sourdough and green herbs. Palate showed rubber, funk and then brightened into black raspberry and cherry. A bit strange, a bit interesting. Others might just call it "off"

Fruity, much more Grenache qualities than anything else. Still seemed surprisingly young for it's age. Plenty of acid and tannin to improve for a few more years.

I think everyone drank too soon. Fabulous out of Reidel Syrah glasses
