January 6, 2024 - Wine Bros: A Study of Syrah (Cowford Chophouse): Usually my favorite of the group just because of the garrigue that you can get from it. It’s an enjoyable wine and drinking quite well if still on the young side. Intense with all of the animal.

November 4, 2023 - Really drinking well. Well aged La Turque syrah at such a good place. Great with wagyu filets.

June 17, 2022 - Another winner for the night. Fun to drink next to the Landonne of the same year. Perhaps a bit more lavender and dark fruits and again that Cote Rotie minerality. Always good.

May 2, 2022 - Pausing for the Cause 2022 (Chicago, IL): Absolutely fantastic showing. Such lithe and lifted aromatics, this was really bright and elegant, with classic syrah notes of olive brine and smoke. The palate is light and supple, high in acidity, and fully mature. The oaky elements, if there ever were any, have receded a way. A treat.
