A lot going on. Red fruit and tannic. Mineral. Maybe it’s just me, but Napa and Sonoma vintage 18 wines (a great vintage) are throwing lots of tannins, across the board. A great wine that needs 4-6yr to resolve itself.

100% new barrel is very well integrated. Needs some time open, very primary at first, but with air shows Syrah secondary. Smooth. Drinkable for the category.

Maybe the best domestic Syrah I have ever had. Beautifully balanced.

Tight, peppery and gamey. Way too young. I think the ingredients are there though- should get better

12' Black cherries on the nose. Decant a minimum of 1 hour+. Green peppers, raw meats, black pepper, fresh blackberries . A long & inviting finish with red fruits. The best years are in front of it.
