this is the first release from this particular vineyard for the syrah-focused winery. its aromas, which pop with notes of strawberry and spice, have both herbal and copper-penny undertones. the fruit and savory flavors play well off of each other, showing a sense of elegance and deftness, with a touch of new wood that contributes to the flavor and feel. the finish stretches out. it still drinks quite young and if the aromas meld together could move up a notch or two.
