Fascinating old Syrah from the Languedoc (label says 100% Syrah, 13.0 ABV), purchased on release, meaty, smoky, clean, balanced, this has held up amazingly well, medium-long finish, a Jeffrey Davies import from his early days of bringing in Languedoc wines (a most excellent portfolio back in the 1990s)!! — 3 years ago

2019 vintage. Soft, supple nose with a little Jeffrey Pine (vanilla/cinnamon) lurking about. Delicate entry with a noticeably bigger mid-palate push and then the hushed dénouement of the exit palate added up to an intriguing wine. Lots of moving parts and it will be fascinating to see where this is in 3 years. 5 years. A decade. Two. Not your average Napa cabbage. — 2 years ago

2014 vintage. Decanted and tasted 30 mins and an hour post-decant. Yellow Chartreuse color. Beautiful vanilla/cinnamon Jeffrey pine at dawn nose. That flowed over into the flavors along with substantial mineral components. Showing great. Very enjoyable. 1.12.24. — a year ago
