Substance makes one of the best <$20 wines I’ve had in the last year. So I had expectations. Jeb Dunnuck rated this very high and I agree: a nose that reminds me of northern Rhône with a meaty flinty mineral quality complimented by violets and purple fruit. The wine has a lithe quality with dry tannins tending towards an earl grey tea in character and medium finish I wish was longer. Overall, a good wine. Is it 3x’s better than the cheaper bottle….I would say yeah…sure. 2018 vintage, Powerline vineyard. — 3 months ago

Two years after the last time I had the Boy ‘16 and it has matured a suspicious amount in that two years (while in a wine cooler). Nice, now dominated by caramelized burnt cherry, licorice, underbrush… which sounds good but finished inconsistent and astringent. Disappointing as I was fully expecting improvement. — 3 years ago

Good, but lacks the complexity and depth of the Powerline. — 5 years ago

Deep gold. Dried apricots on the inviting nose. Full-bodied palate confirms the nose adding balsa wood, and dried apple with a bit of savory tennis shoe note that blossoms into marzipan with air exposure. Acidity is low as is typical of the variety, but present enough to accompany a hearty meal. Finish is long and continues the palate. Very reminiscent of Condrieu in style and profile, though with a bit more weight. — 8 months ago

Mulberry, blueberry fruit aromas and flavors, lovely cool climate profile, Frankland River fruit, great acid and balance and freshness, medium-bodied, medium-long finish, should improve for 2-5 more years, but lovely now!! — a year ago
