Not only more acidic than the Wehlener Sonnenuhr of the same vineyard but more complex in the acidity itself and the range of flavors; ripe yellow apple, slightly underripe pear, a little lemon, peach and nectarine, mostly all fresh fruit characteristics and not the same candied aspect of the WS. Very good and with the acidity where it still is could go years longer in the bottle — 3 days ago

So much mineral that it’s almost dry. The mineral is like talc. — 3 months ago

The most concentrated delineated line of pure petrol I’ve ever had out of a wine. The remainder of fruit and still fresh acidity shows up on the pallet, but the nose is a show.Really cool to taste  — 3 months ago

Enjoying a glass of Dr Loosen Blue Slate at sunset in the Polish Mountains after a good day of hiking. This doesn’t get any better..
The nose is a bit shy but shows citrusy touches, a bit of chalk, fresh white grape juice, white peach, white flowers. The palate is super fresh and precise despite some residual sugar. There are citrusy beams shining through and through, some grip in the rear, some lemon peel and a great, fresh finish that lasts for a while. It’s simple yet perfectly executed. A perfect sip to top up a great and active day. Life is good. — 5 months ago

What a great wine! Perfect for a light meal with a roasted butternut and arugula salad and some leftover roast chicken. Delightful and light finish, with mouth-puckering acid. Yummy! — 2 months ago

Thinking pink as summer temps continue into October...
Strawberries and minerals on the nose and palate, more mild acidity compared to prior years. I'm loving this vintage!! — 3 months ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of dinner. The 2015 Judge Family Vineyard Syrah pours a deep, inky, ruby/purple color with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with significant staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with pungent notes of bacon fat, dark brambles, toasted blueberry crisp, lavender, dried green herbs and fine baking spice. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. This is aging slowly and gracefully. This remains my favorite Syrah made in the United States. Drink now through 2045. — 5 months ago
