The good: drinking great now, really open knit & accessible, almost pop and pour, and great fruit with just enough of a hint of bacon fat on the finish. Depth too. What I question is its anonymity as a Northern Syrah, & I’m not sure that’s even a criticism. Certainly not old school Syrah, and the delicious factor overrides everything debatable. — 14 days ago

Nice balance of acidity and fruit for a 16 year old wine. 2010. In fact it’s pretty fantastic. A bit of stewed apricots d hints of green apple. The tertiary elements are charming as heck. Go team! — 2 months ago

Great balance and structure. This has aged beautifully, yet there are no signs of decline.

Pale lemon color with delicate aromas of citrus, stone fruits and floral note. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and citrus with notes of floral spice. Medium+ finish, slight citrus notes, vivid acidity and ends with floral mineral spice. Nice! Drink now! — a month ago
