March 20, 2022 - We only gave this an hour decant and the score would be even higher had we given it all the time it needed to open up. Still a very powerful wine at 10 years in.

January 27, 2022 - Big, bold, tons of blackberry and blueberry and some meatiness; a good dose of fine expensive oak in there, really nice with the A5 wagyu with onion and a sweet soy sauce sauce; silky, big, bold, and eventually pretty oaky. Turned more oaky as the night went on. I imagine if they halved the oak on these monsters they would have something pretty special. Asanebo w/Yarom and gang.

December 4, 2020 - Première expérience avec la syrah de Colgin et je suis bouche bée. C’est de la bombe. On a pris un verre vendredi soir sans remettre le bouchon. Le vin était encore délicieux samedi soir. C’est rempli de fruits noirs, c’est soyeux, riche. C’est epicé avec des notes de viandes fumées. J’aurais pu croire une cote-rotie, dans le style d’une Llala de Guigal.

December 31, 2019 - Gloriously full and yet silky smooth. The depth of this wine is remarkable. Very dark in color. Tannins are resolved. Amazing. Definitely ready to drink.
