Agree with most other TNs posted. This is a solid, interesting wine in and of the syrah/petite verdot blend. I'd drink this sooner rather than later because i don't see it developing much more.

Upfront Petite Verdot but with some structure and tightness. On day two. Fairly interesting all told.

Modern, chewy, grainy, maybe a little overripe. I like the herbal and graphite qualities here, but there's an almost complete lack of freshness to it.

Red to dark red on the eyes. Wonderful nose of fresh produce, black currant, and strawberries. Great balance w a fruity finish. Tannins pronounced in true Spanish tradition.

Herbal, dusty blackberry, coffee, black Kirsh; tar, old leather, extracted with a cool slight bitter finish; grainy full tannins. This has stuffing, is complex, and has great character. Excellent quality. From the Pago Valdepusa--1st of the single estate Pago wines in Spain. 70% Syrah, 30% Petit Verdot.

Full and ripe Syrah aromas. A nice breed to this wine. 70%Syrah, 30% Petit Verdot. It takes some time and money to make wines like this.

- Crimsom color with medium forming legs and aromas of blackberry. It's balanced and has flavours of blackberry with a medium body. Narrow texture with a medium finish.

Très sec mais quand même agréable, il faut l'aérer un brin avec des effluves de solvant à l'ouverture qui ne m'ont pas paru avoir gâché le vin.

Marques de Grinon has better than this. Peppery, smoky cherry aromas at a moderate level. Dry, full bodied, fresh, high with tannins and cherry, mineral and red fruit combo. Long finish.

Flot mørkerød farve Vinen har en duft af mørke bær. Smagen er kraftig men meget tør og mineralagtig. Tanniner og syre gør at munden tørrer helt ud. Passer bedst til mad.

Rougher and less juicy than the 2007. Nothing fundamentally wrong here, but nothing compelling, either.
