Some Brett, which is a little distracting for me, but doesn’t totally ruin it. Rich and savory, lots of herbal quality, bramble raspberries and dried cherries. A bit hot, which is surprising given the green notes in there. Going to let this open up for a day or two as it’s a bit linear right now, and check back in with it later. It’s a nice Syrah, but I was hoping for more. EDIT: Day two, after decanting and leaving in a partial bottle, this wine was totally singing. Opened right up, almost Barbaresco-like character. Totally shows off what Syrah can do. Rating upgraded.

Beautiful, young wine. More fruit forward than I expected. The gamey, smoked meat profile I expected was absent, but count me as a fan of this.

Dude...I just picked up a bottle last week. Figured it would be fun to try alongside the 2016 Gonon.
