Syrah's are among my favorite types of wine. So it's no surprise that I like the almost jammy fruitiness this cask brings to the equation. It's not overly sweet, though, and it finishes with more woody and dark chocolate notes.

Nearly perfect. A must-try if you can find it and have the means to get it.

Everyday stuff. It's definitely good, but not quite great. Well worth having on your shelf.

It's fine. We wouldn't seek it out, but if offered a dram we wouldn't turn it down.

Meh. It's not to our liking, but we could see how others might enjoy it.

It's bad. There's maybe one "ok" quality to it, but not enough to offset everything else.

Undrinkable. Something went very wrong here. Pass us the Malort instead.
