This aromatic wine will keep your nose busy, it’s packed with abundance of black currants, peppers and flowers that majority of them concour with the palate. Powerful enough to show its explosive accents of blueberries with a nice acidity, tannins that takes it to the very back end of the tongue and pushes for a long finish. Hard to resist another glass of it. — 25 days ago

Outstanding Syrah from Bien Nacido Vineyard in Santa Maria Valley, a site Rajat Parr has been exploring for a number of years (some, in collaboration with Piedrasassi) to craft a California Syrah to match the northern Rhône best ones (if you've read Rajat Parr's Atlas of Taste, you know he's obsessed with Thierry Allemand). Lively, balanced, delicious. — 5 years ago

2019 vintage. Showing just below the lushness of a Sine Qua Non or Alban Syrah-based effort. This is, nonetheless, outstanding. Slightly more acidity evident than many Rhône efforts tasted from Alban/Sine Qua Non/other Central Coast producers on the finish. Simply amazing that it's being done at a 12.5% ABV clip. If you see it, hit it. 3.22.23 — 2 years ago

Tastes like a cigar box smells.....in a cedar closet. Super bitter barky aftertaste, and dirty swig-from-the-bottle fun after two days open. Something amazing from Lompoc. — 5 years ago
