2021 vintage. Light-medium/medium body. Subtle, yet enduring, nose. Beautiful length of finish. Understated the entire performance but easily held in thrall for the duration. Absolutely positively don’t need any Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot currently but if I did, woulda pounced. — 2 years ago
Somewhat muted nose full of baking spices. Beautiful flavors of cranberry, ginger, milling spices, and forest floor that just goes on and on. — 5 years ago

A 20 year old Syrah from Idaho! Yes Idaho and scoring it a conservative 9.5! Amazing. Still super vibrant, deep dark cherry infused with mulberry spice and lifted with floral notes of violet, sage and jasmine. Incredible. From Hells Canyon, oldest winery in Idaho established in early 1980’s on the banks of the mighty Snake River. — 10 months ago
