The Syrah and Petite Sirah were really at the forefront in this bottle, with meatier flavor elements complemented by black fruit covering the palate. I liked it better than the others, although we all had a preference for the Willow Creek Cuvee that was opened along side it.

Really enjoyed this. It has settled down since I first tried it, 14 months ago, and is now in the early phase of its drinking window. The tannins are well integrated and the ripe black fruits and faint licorice note on the palate are simply delicious. The only thing holding it back is a somewhat subdued nose. Still have one bottle in the cellar, but I’d rather have 6!

Dark fruit, full body, jammy, nice balance - very nice wine. Syrah dominates.

A beautiful wine. Though high alcohol, it did not come through on the palate. Very soft especially for a syrah. A lovely wine. Wish I had more.

Easy quaffing. Medium bodied with black fruits and well integrated tannins.
