4/21/2024 - axz055 Likes this wine: 94 points

Opening the first of my 21s. A little over an hour since decant. Ripe blueberry and blackberry and a bit of an herbal note on the nose. Dark fruit, cola, smoky notes, tar, and spice on the palate. Moderate tannins, medium plus acid, full body, and a long finish. Awesome now but will try to hold the next bottle at least a year.

Just enough Rocks influence to make it distinctive without being overwhelmed with the funk. Great mouth feel, rich and full-flavored, good acid level and a long finish. A fav.

Very different from the 2017. Rich bouquet, fruity on front, luscious, very long finish, a first for me on a tasting note...fresh crab leg coming out at the end of the finish. Best 2nd day.

Getting more "Rocksy" with time but still heavy on the Viognier profile in the wine

2019 Delmas The Peddler SJR Vineyard

The Rocks District of Milton-Freewater Syrah Blend, Syrah more

1/1/2024 - krhaugh Likes this wine: 92 points

Decanting but poured an opening glass since this is the 1st Peddler (Magnum) I have tried. Pretty typical of Delmas rocks wines, not as masculine as Cayuse, Horsepower or Rotie but it definitely has the rocks funk, mushroom and forest floor. Deep purple juice and showing a long velvety finish. This is going to drink well tonight even though it is still a little young. Pairing with prime rib stew.

Decanted >1 hour. Similar to Cayuse wines except these are more feminine and not as over the top funky. Delicious wine that is typical of The Rock's. Still has plenty of time in the bottle.

Really bombastic, almost slutty. Also really funky! Copious flowers and heady lilies on the nose. It's a little short on the back end but it opened up well and got a little more citrus in character.

I drank this a lot younger than I typically open bottles, but was very intrigued and thought I'd open one since I have 6. I really enjoyed this wine - gave 1/2 a bottle about an hour of air before starting and it kept evolving in the glass. Pomegranate notes jumped out at me immediately but also floral notes and a hint of bacon fat. Planning to finish the second 1/2 tonight to see how it changes.

Slow ox for two hours. Deep, dark ruby with a narrow pale rim. Big, lovely nose of red fruit and cherry with a touch of horse sweat, blood, guts, and black pepper. Huge, rich mouth feel. Long but relatively unvarying finish. Drinking brilliantly but I expect it to improve for 2 to 4 years.

Beautifully made. I'm a fan of French Viognier, which this is not, but this has a lot of wonderful and subtle nuances. I do love the label design.

First of several bottles. Poured about 2 hours ago. Nice complex nose with dark fruits and some herbal, smoky notes. Dark fruits with a bit of funk and spice on the palate. Full body, moderate tannins, medium acid, and medium to long finish. 92 now but room to improve with time.

What a difference time makes. Has definitely put on weight since we opened a bottle in early 2022, but it's not heavy and funky like most Rocks syrahs. It's feminine and sultry with understated power. They're Batman, this is Catwoman. Absolutely stunning.

Clear medium red/purple. Floral and meaty, seemed like Syrah, berry, black cherry, warm earth and spice. The flavours were very feminine, red berry, cherry and beef broth with a textured elegant finish.

Served blind after a bunch of Oregon Pinot Noirs. Some argued this was a Washington wine and was out of place in the tasting. Those people must think that a wine is made in a winery instead of in a vineyard. I bear them no ill will. It was a good natured argument.

I was expecting an extracted, syrupy Syrah, but what I found was a balanced, medium bodied, elegant Syrah that stays true to its Northwen Rhone roots. While still on the young side, it opens up after a 1-2 hour decant.

What a great wine! Slightly sweeter on the finish than I recall from the previous bottle, but drinking wonderfully. Flavors consistent with prior note. Drink now - 2031.
