Like a fine woman.... always getting better with age!! @Shauna Summers @Terri Walker @Warren Sapp @Jim Trobaugh @Stanley Barrios @Neil Valenzuela @Ian Blackburn @leon egozi @Shay A @Mike Smith @Bill Bender @Walter Sorensen

Yep wow! The nose has aromas of Bing cherry, pencil shavings, sandalwood, and cardamom. Then it unfolds a finish of rose oil and Indian spice and plum.

@Ron R Speaking of tipping the scales; this is 16.2%. Smokey, earthy, brooding and offering loads of dark fruits, framed by dense yet clever tannins, toasty oak and enough acidity to let the unity fold nicely. Not my preferred style, but quality wise very impressive.

This Epoch was Epic!

I have known for years that Paso Robles makes great wine. This is an excellent example of what perfect weather, abundant water and great soils can produce. Deep rich dark fruit and extremely fine silky tannins! @Paul T @Ron R @Jim Trobaugh @Bill Bender @Jacqueline @Eric Shanks @Connor McMahon @Martin G Rivard

2018 vintage. 100% syrah. Willow Creek District. Paderewski Vineyard. Heavy body. Multi-faceted nose. Price has crept up substantially so it is no longer a QPR/bang for the buck darling but is still rocking at full volume. Sometimes, you gotta drop the coin for the concert. 5.29.24.

Lush, deep, dark! One of central coast bests!

Hard to find these 08’s now, great bottle from Paso

2018 vintage. Heavy body. Smoky plummy nose. 100% Syrah. A Paso biggie but balanced. 5.11.23.

First time having this one, I’ll be buying more.
