Very solid, higher acidity that the standard QC, but I think this will be better in a few more years.

2014 Horsepower Vineyards Syrah The Tribe Vineyard

Walla Walla Valley more

9/23/2023 - Nbkat8 wrote: 91 points

Horsepower continues to surprise and disappoint, Ive had profound bottles that were multilayered beauties and others that I would honestly dump down the drain. This bottle was kind of in between, it started out with a slight fizzy, soda taste, which was the bad Horsepower Ive experienced but after a couple of hours it started to smooth out and be solid. Maybe after a couple more hours of air it would get to that profound stage again. The amount Ive spend on my 5 years of allocations aren't looking like its worth it.

2009 Cayuse Cabernet Sauvignon The Widowmaker En Chamberlin Vineyard

Walla Walla Valley more

9/4/2023 - Nbkat8 wrote: 96 points

This drank very well. Its a great combination of Cab and rocks funk. Sometimes Cayuse can be overly funky but its good to know with some age it tempers it a bit and brings out secondary wood and spice notes.

2016 Garrison Creek Cellars Syrah

Walla Walla Valley more

9/1/2023 - Nbkat8 wrote: 96 points

So good. Unbelievable Le Collines nose...Juicy lingering blueberry and blackberry mouthfeel, extremely well rounded. This is the best Syrah in the Sate of Washington IMO not named Bionic Frog, and Ive tried them all.

Not sure what this is really supposed to be, its a mess, maybe too young but i don't see a lot of potential. Heavy tar up front, super hot, high alcohol. Not a lot of character.

2010 Clos du Mont-Olivet Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Cuvée du Papet

Red Rhone Blend more

5/14/2023 - Nbkat8 wrote: 94 points

Highly structured, spicy ripe bright fruit, perfumed lavender, grippy tannins but not overwhelming, medium finish. Early stages of prime drinking window. The somewhat choppy finish is holding this back to being a great wine, a couple more years should cure this.

Had to try now, well structured wine, excellent Pnp out of the bottle. Needs more time to become a high 90's rated wine like the experts say.

You get hints of oak and spice, really comes together and makes for a smooth drinker that will go with any food parings. Not going to get better than it is today, drink up.

Dark berries surround gritty tannins that make this a very desirable wine. Would have guessed 100% cab here but this is cut with some Merlot.

Smooth wine, tannins are nonexistent so not sure how much longer this will age. Lively bright plums, nice finish. I did find this overly jammy after the initial glass, not a finesse wine by any means.

Very integrated tannins with hints of age but has overall lively freshness with bright fruit and some wood flavors. You can tell this was a warm vintage, very ripe and well within its drinking window. Medium to heavy weight.
