Pleasantly surprised that this held up for being 7 years old. Smooth up front with a nice peppery finish still. Definitely impressed.

Jan 17th, 2017Actually quite impressed with this wine. Very smooth with quite the peppery kick at the end. This aged nicely.

Dec 29th, 2016This bold, complex Syrah has aromas of leather, currants, dried herbs, and boysenberry jam with smooth, seamless tannins. The 2010 vintage is becoming one of my favorites as it combines Washington state power with a perfect cooler vintage restraint, not easy at our powerful Cold Creek site.
