Simply an outstanding bottle!! The Larner Vineyard is managed exceptionally and Larry allows the fruit to showcase itself — 5 years ago

A GSM blend from @Michael Larner Dark fruits with smoky & spice. Paired with a cast iron seared rib-eye — 5 years ago
Second bottle was outstanding. Olive brine, blackberries, crushed dried flowers, plum, more forest/woodsy flavors. Lingering finish. To me this is better than pax Sonoma hillside 2018. It has more fruit but still this awesome herbal, flower, olive component. Less game. — 3 years ago
Enjoyed lining up this Syrah alongside another from the same vineyard under a different winemaker. Still fascinates me how fruit from the same area is so different from one winemaker to another, both being equally awesome — 4 years ago
Great Grenache from Ballard Canyon to go with Bolognese for dinner — 5 years ago
