December 8, 2022 - Very course and lacking grace. I had a similar experience with this wine 10 years ago and it hasn’t gotten any better since then!

January 3, 2022 - Big, rich, sweet Syrah. This is a tad spoofilated. Good fruit and a bitter finish. Drink up. (89)

June 6, 2021 - 深石榴红酒体，闻香有Brett带来的动物皮毛味，陈年的肉鲜，泥土气息，红黑果香，入口酸度中高，单宁紧致，颗粒非常细腻，风格甜美，有一点酒精味，应该是老酒，口中的香气非常新鲜，果香混合着花香，收尾是细腻红果，余味鲜甜。非常精致的一款酒，感觉新旧世界结合的风格，有旧世界的气质又有新世界的甜美。

November 11, 2020 - A Casual Back Porch Get-Together (Los Olivos, CA): A somewhat controversial wine amongst the four of us. I really liked it. Polished black fruit, high-toned, violets, with a touch of VA providing lift. Additional floral and herbal notes, some spice and bitter chocolate. After a few hours, an appealing meatiness emerged. I think the style threw the others as they brought their own expectations to the table. While the wine was extracted, it was also quite restrained IMO.

August 20, 2020 - Muddy color, not the best representation of Syrah. Past it’s drinking time.
