Oaky notes well balanced with tons of dark fruit and chocolate. Smooth and full-bodied. Pairs well with food but is also great just drinking by itself. Good straight from the bottle but even better aerated. — 3 years ago
Washington GSM? OK. Very solid. I’m not sure I could tell the difference between this and an entry level CDR. Very enjoyable though. Stewed cherries on the nose and palate with a med finish. Great lunch wine in this WFH era. — 4 years ago

I’m loving what’s coming out of the Pacific Northwest these days. It’s so under appreciated.
This wine is wild. It legit smells like a Starbucks... in Washington State. — 3 years ago

Nicely put together Syrah. Color is quite saturated. Nose is moderate intensity, showing crushed stone, loam, beef jerky, and deep, low-toned dark berry fruit. Deep and tacky-textured in the mouth, the tannins are prominent but soft and in balance with the deep fruit. Loads of ashy, dark rock dust minerality in the back half of the palate. Nice acids for a wine that’s 14.9%. This is great now but will certainly age several more years. — 3 months ago
