8/30/2017 - Andrew67 Likes this wine: 91 pointsBlack and blue fruits are prominent, along with cloves, liquorice and earthy notes. The fruit is powerful, but thankfully not over sweet. It doesn't feel quite balanced right now, the tannins and fruit are a bit discordant. This could be an odd bottle but I would give the wine a couple more years to sort itself out. |

8/17/2015 - forceberry wrote: 80 pointsPale lime green color. Expressive and rather oak-driven nose with intense aromas of creamy oak, ripe stone fruits, some toasty oak spice, a little bit of crema catalana, light vanilla tones and a subtle undercurrent of smoke. The wine is full-bodied, ripe and quite powerful on the palate with bold flavors of ripe red apples, juicy citrus fruits, rich oaky creaminess, some cloying toffee oak, a little bit of stony minerality, a little bit of vanilla and a hint of canned pineapple. The alcohol really doesn't lend that much warmth to the palate, but it tastes quite prominently. The acidity feels moderately high, keeping the wine from appearing too heavy or flabby. The finish is rich, moderately warm and quite powerful with long flavors of sweet golden apples, creamy oak, some savory oak spice, a little bit of apple peel bitterness, light stony minerality, a sweet - almost cloying - hint of butterscotch and caramel and a touch of tropical fruit preserves. |

5/1/2017 - RieslingFanatic Likes this wine: 88 pointsPlenty of cassis, black berries, bay leaf (quite noticeable), other herbs, coal/asphalt and tobacco - both nose and palate. Finish is a touch short, balance is good after some air (bit sharp initially) and tannins well integrated. A good wine - maybe lacking excitement? |

12/25/2016 - mike.s Likes this wine: NRA decent fruit forward syrah consumed over meal & conversation over 4 nights screw capped and refrigerated. By the last day oxidation has turned it to vinegar, but on the first day a decent fruit forward nose and please taste with mild tannins and some structure, but no notable character. |
