A bit of the old house style, not as focused as the recent 2013. Still a reference in balance for CA.

So damn cool and calm. Says a lot with few words. A deep, dark introvert, moves slow like a creeping fog.
Barely there chocolate covered cherries, new leather, and violet. Velvet soft texture, metallic with a salty chew.

Highly acidic, nice fruit. It was a bit hard to concentrate on notes. Meaty blackberry with black pepper nose. It underwhelms on the palate. I would have expected more body, but that would be hard to achieve with 11.9% ABV. I guess this is par for this wine. It's not often I disagree with @Antonio Galloni but I don't get the hype on this one. Maybe too young!

Probably my favorite Syrah — consistently amazing every year. Like the perfect bite of dark chocolate
