very light, almost flavorless at first... you get a light citrusy fruitiness after a bit. Gets a bit heavier when warmer, but then it ends drily. Would be a good summer sipper, but there's not a lot to this either. — 4 years ago
An absolutely wonderful Syrah, from nose to finish! Wonderful medium-bold’ish red with notes of dark raspberries, plum, and a touch of cherry. Delicious! — 5 years ago
2012 vintage is exceptional, perfect balance and after 11 years I think this was optimum time to open. Served with Prime Rib Steaks on the BBQ — 2 years ago

Bottled 2016, contains heirloom varieties from their own orchard in Applegate, Oregon: Arkansas Black, Blenheim Red, Macintosh and Rome Beauty. Very clear, yellow brown color, light to moderate carbonation, rapidly collapsing head. Very good mix of flavors; their label claims a profile of “apricot, honeydew, tropical fruit and green apple”. I would back the first three claims. Crisp and dry, as advertised. A touch too much wood for my taste, but otherwise well crafted with an excellent array of fruit. No bitterness and minimal astringency. Good value — 4 years ago
Pale lemon color.
Aromas of tropical fruit, herbaceous.
Dry. Flavors of lime, kiwi, papaya, hint of green bell pepper, some minerality. Bright, fresh, and juicy!
