I held this first bottle for 2 years and on opening discover a soft nose and a heavy wine. it required a long opening, i aired it well. Dark friut a delightful soft finish for a complex layering of dark fruit and earth.
I enjoyed matching it up with a firm goat cheese salad and a bison steak with mushrooms. The second botte should hold well for at least another 14 mths. excellant value ****

Bold and medium full-bodied blended with good percentage of syrah. Fruity and a bit minty with a long finish. It is a good idea to air it for a while before drinking.
