Rhône with great acid and red fruit — 18 days ago
Crunchy, meaty, red cherries and a lithe texture. Yum! — 6 months ago
Aromas of bluefruits and earthy, mineral notes, similar flavors, like the 2009, this also shows lower ABV (13.4%), faint green bean/green olive note as well, both of these are close to showing as from the northern Rhône, really excellent Santa Rita Hills Syrah!! — a month ago

Blackberry, blueberry, smoked meat and garrigue. Wine is #14 on Wine Spectator’s Top 100 of 2019. — 25 days ago
Still dark purple color, richer and riper than the 2007 Turner, dark fruits, still showing pretty tannic structure, long finish, very good, but I prefer the freshness (better acidity, lower ABV (by 1%)) of the Turner, should improve another 3-5 years, or more. — 2 months ago
