Very nice bottle. Tight initially, but opened up nicely over the following 30-45 minutes. Balanced, with full body, and a touch of tannin. Probably could have stood another year or two in the bottle. Great value!

Massive syrah fruit (70-30 blend) with tight tannins. Has slightly funky green edge on the palette. More Aussie Shiraz style (fruit forward) than traditional California Syrah. Decanted for about an hour, got better after another hour, but never fully came around (but then I prefer the full-bodied, tannic style over the Aussie fruit bombs)... so YMMV.

nice balance of fruit, bit hot, maybe because of the high alcohol content
