  Robust, chewy, savory Syrah, and delicious in that sense. On the rustic side, cellaring has not resulted in the refinement and perfume that I anticipated when it was a just-bottled pup.

  Dark in color. Dark fruits, pepper, spice, smoke, and meat flavors. Has what I call the classic Andrew Murray style. Delicious with spicy grilled meats.

  One of my faves, and really drinking well. Tart and spicy, the Viognier adds a hint of apricot to complement the dominant palate notes of olives, roasted meats and savory herbs. There's a touch of mint on the finish and a somewhat floral aspect. Lots going on, but not clashing -- all in harmony.

  Black & red fruit with mild acidity and savory components. I don't think this will stay within the drinking window-a couple of years tops, then the flabby midsection takes hold. QPR is stellar.

  Very complete and balanced Syrah with lots of character and gobs of flavor, perfect for gobble-gobble day. Rich red fruit, almost pinot noir type aromas, some rare steak as well, and a full palate with good length. Great now and for a few more years.
