Pop and pour. Notes from about 2 hrs open. Hmm, this has darkened a lot in style. Still a touch of incense and red raspberry, but showing much more garrigue and olive tapenade than when it was younger. On the palate: solid acidity and just so giving. Very enjoyable and fun to drink next to a Betz Besoleil with similar age to compare new world--old school with old world--classically-styled. — a year ago

Mature Syrah exactly as it should be. Patience was rewarded. Tannins softened and the super bright fruit of youth given way to dry versions of themselves with black pepper and meat still showing through with leather and earth. — 3 months ago
とてもおいしい。雄斗がワイナリーで買ってきたオレンジワイン。白ブドウだが皮を使って赤ワインのような醸造で作ったワインをオレンジワインというらしい。
赤っぽい渋み、重さがありつつ酸味によるキレもあり。他のオレンジワインも飲んでみたい。 — 2 years ago

A fine release with rich black fruits and spicy finish. Some notes of clove linger and high acidity. — 4 years ago

Proof positive that WA southern style can sge beautifully. Red fruit leaning towards dry versions with dried flowers vamilla spice earth and bark. Color is medium ruby still with a little brick starting to show. — 3 months ago
