Light pink color. Complex aromas and flavors of red strawberries/plums/raspberries, cranberries, grapefruit, kiwi, watermelon, wild flowers and fresh herbs. Pleasant mineral note on the long finish. Zesty acidity and lovely texture. Crisp and refreshing. Pleasant surprise and very well made. Thanks for sharing Ron B and Aaron B! — 8 days ago

Golgotha - Scholium Project 2010.
Widowmaker Block Hudson Vineyards.

Abe, the man who would be king, gifted this bottle (amongst many others) to me after being an Intern in 2013. They travelled from Napa to London to Western Australia.
15 years later on a Monday night of a week I wasn’t meant to be drinking…
I pulled it out of the wine fridge in Margaret River. Cork fresh as a daisy and some decent sediment on first pour. Aerated with Vinturi and poured. Some early VA blew away and a Star Was Born. The floral powderiness on my mid palate is intoxicating. Never before have I tasted a big inky, 15% delicate ballerina like this. So glad I opened it alone so we can have a week together understanding each other. Has to be Petite Syrah. Wine study X 1000 ♥️ Pretty Pimpin — 2 months ago

Tightly wound - a 2018 but still seems young. After two hours, crushed fruit, coffee, plastic, lemon, dirt on the nose. Heavy on the palate. Serious wine that needed a few more years. — 23 days ago

2022 vintage. This is going places. Classy and sophisticated in a medium-heavy body package. Nice mineral flourish on the finish. Vineyard planted in 2006. 400 cases made. Heritage Shot Wente clone. Unfiltered and unfined. The fruit was picked by hand at night so there’s that. 11.15.24. — 6 months ago

At 10-years, a beautiful experience…deep, dark pour with no signs of bricking…dark fruit (more purple and black) aromatics that just keep on developing…palate mirrors aromatics with strong fruit profile…pleasing texture/mouth feel…medium finish…hard to say how much longer one should hold…tonight, it was in the right place for our dinner — 8 days ago

Christmas Eve pop and pour appetizers. A majestic medium gold color. On the nose: subtle notes of candied lemon, banana, pear, buttered popcorn, honey. Taste: chalky-creamy, bright wine with lemon rind, saline, pineapple, brioche, mineral and a white pepper grapefruit finish. YUM! — 5 months ago
