No bitterness or any minerality. Just crisp, clean, and flavors of white grape, lemon and lychee hint. Long lasting finish. Longer than I’d expect. — a month ago

2018 vintage. Banging Napa vintage and it translated well here. Heavy/full body. Gobs of smoke, baby fat and meatiness. Small mineral components on the finish but hard to discern when you're dodging all the fireworks. Super smooth and without scary tannins currently. A good entry Syrah for those scurred by those nasty, dirty Syrah playthings. 14.8% and 260 cases made. *Full disclosure-have had approx 100 Laird wines over the last 20 years and this is only the third one I've actually liked for the price. 4.3.24. — 8 months ago

Somewhat more drinkable than the Laird, yet still a monster. — 3 years ago

Recent Malbec release from Laird- Inky purple color. Aromas of blackberry, mocha and cigar box. Fantastic blackberry jam flavors, roasted coffee, tobacco and spice finish. — 2 months ago

This underwent 100% malolactic and spent 10 months in 30% new French oak, so it has a creamy palate ripe with stone fruits. Yet it does not feel heavy or cloying. Oak is well managed and acidity manages to be fresh. Quite enjoyable.

The Laird family holds about 2000 acres of vineyards in Napa Valley, including Suscol and Linda Vista. Red Hen is the home estate. — a year ago

Overpowering and overwhelming cherry flavor. This wine got better after breathing but is too strong at this time. Perhaps it will improve in another three years. The nose is classic Pinot Noir and lovely. — 3 months ago

Strawberries and bready yeast on the nose. A beautiful rosey salmon color with fine fine perlage making the mouth literally sparkle alive. I just wish there was more to the palate. — 4 years ago
