Ugly ugly ugly and a great value. All encompassing black pepper, dirt, some decent acidity, herbs and baking spices, rubber hose in the finish. Beautiful with braised duck.

Beautiful Syrah. NOT sweet. Feels like there are several layers. With some sage. Northern Rhone rules!

Bank for your buck! This wine was only $27.99 in NJ and I was so hesitant to buy it since good Saint Joseph usually costs at least $10 more. Great expression of Syrah terroir in many ways. This is how I picture steep slope Saint Joseph.

An approachable, peppery Syrah with a good balance of the typical savory notes with a good blackberry fruit.
