The vineyard is noted for the quality of its Syrahs, and this one is right up there, although as currently constituted, it's a bit too young. Shows thick tannins and very ripe flavors of blackberry jam, cassis, cherry liqueur, melted dark chocolate, violets and a wonderful appliqué of cedar, finished with crunchy black pepper. Better by the winter of 2009, with slow-braised short ribs.
