Jon says... Don't Buy
Something is wrong with this wine. Ted and I called each other and we both had a bad experience. This is not a “bad bottle” situation. It’s just bad wine.
Ted says... Mediocre
This wine is kind of like Bud Lite — I don’t really want to drink it, but if it is opened and in my hand, why not?
This Syrah started off with potential, black fruit and spicyness, with a tannic & spicy finish. But towards the end of the glass this wine morphed into mediocrity. Dull fruit and a dull finish, where’d that spicyness goto? The first wine where decanting makes the wine taste worst?

I gave this one a try and wasn’t a fan either. I much prefer the Gravity Hills Syrah which at Trader Joe’s right now. Have you guys had that one? If not I recommend giving it a try…
