This is not Macabeu, as Delectable indicates. It’s 100% Serine. Much like the Segna de Cor cuvée, it’s fresh, tense and incredibly detailed for a red from such hot, hardscrabble terroir. Smashing purity; all the great Syrah feels you get from the world’s masters of the grape. Extraordinary and fine. — 4 years ago
Deep Ruby color with complex aromas of black fruits, herbs, floral and smoky notes! On the palate flavors of ripe black fruits, tobacco and spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry, currants and plum with herbs, tobacco and pepper spice. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, herb, spice and earthy character. Nice! — 9 months ago

I’m a fan of these wines. I’ve not bought in a while as I lost track of them but did manage to get a couple when I saw they had a store in Healdsburg. Back then he was making it seemed like every varietal possible. This one was always a favorite and is still going strong. No rush — 5 months ago
