Rich and full bodied. Nose of savoury black plums. So flavoursome - sumptuous, mouth filling and satisfying. One of the more enjoyable reds I’ve had of recent times. From the excellent 2016 vintage. This is the first of 2 bottles. Next one towards the end of 2027 or early 2028.

2021/12/9-10 with beef and red wine Japanese curry, eggs baked with truffle butter, etc. While this might be a young vine cuvée, it’s still incredibly young at 5 years. It starts off powdery and compacted, only revealing blackberry, dark raspberry and violet after a few hours. It opened a bit more on the second day, but would undoubtedly be even better with 5-10 more years.

Still young, but still opened up beautifully to give ripe red fruit and berry, licorice, black pepper, fresh olive paste, blood, game, beautifully sappy, phenolic herbs, and an exotic hint of peach pit that emerges slowly. Opaque ruby in the glass, the appealingly ripe fruit notes are joined by spice cake, and an undercurrent of smoky minerality. Nice mineral structure overall. Beautifully long finish that leaves you with a subtle and sweet taste of white flowers. Beautiful Syrah.
