Over a year ago I gave this an 84. Well it hit me right today. The syrah/grenache blend was lovely. Seemed more sturdy, had some backbone. Drinking well, especially after a day or two.

2h air, perhaps not needed? Deep garnet color. Notes of plum, black cherry, allspice, lavender and leather. Smooth and rich on the palate, medium-full bodied, with dark fruit and cherry flavors, and broad plush tannins. A bit simple and fruit-driven for my taste and had a stalkiness that took a while to resolve in glass.

One of the best bottles of wine I've had this year. Opulent, plush and extracted, but with plenty of structure. The fruit (ripe black cherry and blackberry) dances on the edge of overripe, but the savory structure maintains the balance.

Hopefully was just an off bottle. Did not taste good, even after 3 days.

Delicious and harmonious right now. Solid value and could age 2-3 more years but ideal now. PNP.
