94 \u2014 James Suckling<\/strong>Lots of rich, luscious fruit with dark-plum and tar aromas and flavors. It's full-bodied with soft yet chewy tannins and plenty of structure. Very delicious to drink, but still challenging, suggesting that another two or three years of bottle age will make it even better. Try after 2023.<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

95 \u2014 James Suckling<\/strong>This is beautiful, complete syrah with blackberry, black-olive, light tar and mahogany character. It's full and chewy, yet the tannins are round and attractive. Give it time to open and come together. Spicy at the end. Try after 2023.<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

95 \u2014 James Suckling<\/strong>A syrah that shows lots of crushed-berry, walnut and dried-meat character. Chocolate, too. It\u2019s full-bodied with lots of ripe fruit and ripe tannins, yet tensioned and polished. Needs a year to two to soften a bit, but already impressive.
