This is a “wifey” rating…
Caramel and butterscotch notes on the nose and palate. Roasted pineapples and limes present on the mid palate, with a note of preserved citrus fruits. Evolving to a better place as it warms up in the glass. Getting better with bottle age. — 6 months ago

So impressed with this vintage. Deep and concentrated nose and palate. Displays quince and white fleshed fruits, coupled with a dense, oily mouthfeel. Superb length with very little acidity to talk about. Finishes sweet and voluptuous. Overall, the integration is textbook. — 10 months 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 — a year ago

Very enjoyable. Lovely nose with lemon custard, candied pineapple, overripe pear, and nuanced buttery popcorn. Great structure and awesome balance. Worthy of buying in bulk. — 6 years ago

Big, rich, tannic Syrah. This needs 5+ years (at least) of additional cellaring, long finish, great potential!! — 7 months ago

Very impressive given that I pulled the cork one week prior. The wine held up superbly. For the regular chard, I loved this example. — 9 months ago

2018 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 1.5 hours. Medium body. Excellent, dark color. Some leaner fruits balanced with earth and spices. On the prettier side of the ledger currently. 1.2.26. — 6 months ago

Luckily, this bottle was on par again.
Freshness of juicy fresh fruit, just-enough-acidity and a mineral twist combined with creamy Napa-richesse of warm pastry, vanilla and a hint of caramelfudge. — 8 months ago

Visual tells you that this is a mature example. Nose presents olives peaches. Palate is all about macerated olives and briny notes. Nice delicate nutmeg and roasted nut notes combine with ripe white fruits and moderate sweetness. I love the Hudson vineyard so wanted to take a look at this. We got to this a little too late, but it’s still excellent. Its pedigree shines thru. — 10 months ago

For a red lover, and not a fan of Chards, this wine knocked me off my feet! I absolutely Loved it! If I could describe my perfect request for a white wine, it would be this one. Butterscotch, almond, a slight fruity hint of lemon zest but not sharp or tart, buttery and bright yet incredibly smooth and a nice heavy feel. This is my favorite white wine ever! (And ranks above some of my fave reds). — 4 years ago
