Josh Bergstrom never ceases to impress. This wine is a show stopper. Black pepper, saddle leather, unique dried meatiness / beef jerky and an incredible concentration of spice.

Thin and without body. This Syrah is very acidic. A disappointment.

Phenomenal. Horsepower and Reyevaan esque. Strawberry and blackberry jam nose. Pepper and leather. Rhone like elegance.

This is very, very good. Dead ringer for Northern Rhone. Have to thank @Hammell for inadvertently turning me on to these...
