8/26/2016 - shaftlet wrote: 92 pointsFull throttle Napa Syrah. Cocoa, mulberry, blackberry, cassis, vanilla, graphite and soy... lotsa soy. This is verging on over the top (jammy). Medium-Full. Leaning full. Needs a few to settle down. Lots of cocoa on the backend. How book endy. For mochaholic book readers everywhere. Be patient friends, classics need time... |

8/27/2015 - bestdamncab Likes this wine: 93 pointsNose of ripe fig, plum, and cherry fruit, more of the same on the palate, on the mid palate you find rich fruit, lots of complexity, almost elegant the second night, probably better in two years, medium/big body, not quite Mi Sueno Syrah by the same winemaker, long, flavorful finish and aftertaste. |

10/19/2014 - djlevin Likes this wine: 92 pointsA beautiful aged Syrah. Drink now... this is smack in the middle of its drinking window. The nose is full of rich plum and blackberry fruit with a woody, creme brulee note. On pop and pour all you get is cashmere in the mouth. What wonderful texture! The wine is initially closed. After a 30 min. decant - the plum and blackberry becomes persistent and in front. The mid-palate is full of oak, rich brown butter and spicy clove with a medium-long dark chocolate finish. The tannins are partially resolved and medium. The acidity is medium-high producing a nice backbone. The alcohol is well integrated. An extremely balanced wine! The richness and smooth texture of this wine will only pair well with the richest foods. Falls a little flat on the finish, but I can forgive... On its own, it is an after-dinner crowd-pleaser that your guests will likely not forget. A cool-climate Carneros Syrah lives up to its potential again! |

12/27/2013 - bestdamncab Likes this wine: 90 pointsAt Baldacci today, the last pour of the tasting was Syrah with a lovely, rich nose of spicy fruit, more of the same on the palate, like cinnamon and burnt orange rind, almost intense, medium/big body, and a medium/long finish. |
