This wine is not vegetarian. Duck breast and stewed prunes. Simply astounding! Years of life left.

From a stretch of Hudson vineyard if I followed Abe’s notes accurately. Needs some air and then a pretty classic northern Rhone syrah nose emerges. Medium-bodied with a slightly gravely texture. Enjoyed it.

I want to like Scholium Project wines, but they’re just not for me. This Syrah is over the top savory, like drinking cows blood. Beefy, mineral, smoky, with some acidity and red fruit flavors. So intense that I have to drink in small sips. 🤷🏻

Pine, gin and menthol nose. Acid, stewed plum and tannic grip in the mouth, a bit of coffee on the finish.

Black and red currant, boysenberry, bright. As timid as an elephant in heat. Do not consume within an hour of opening.
