Light, refreshing, with a great spine of minerality. I had another bottle a few months ago that was a little too raw, but the last two have matured nicely. Shared with a bunch of non-wino friends and it vanished quickly. Very popular wine.

Saw them on Beserker Day 2024. Strong aromas of lemon, lime, and almond. All of those are confirmed on the palate. But what’s more interesting is the shockingly tart entry this wine has. My wife called it sucking on a lime. There’s a nice minerality on the fairly long finish. No discernable new oak, which is fine. Just seemed a little unbalanced on the whole.

Deep purple. Plums, red cherry, charred herbs. Medium body, a little hot. Fruit forward, with a lot of red cherry. The high alcohol threw this enough off balance to reduce enjoyment. And it unfortunately was a bit one note. Didn't improve with air time either. Bummer.

For my tastes, this wine presents really nice balance and is a pretty perfect 'weight' for a new world syrah...neither too big and clunky nor another attempt to be overly lean and hip. The nose may not have been quite as expressive as the last bottle, dark and blue fruits on the palate and a lingering finish

I wasn’t too impressed with this Syrah. I was expecting more since the reviews were pretty good.

This one stood out from the other syrah in the lineup because unlike the black fruited wines this had a predominant blue fruit from beginning to end. Thinking ripe blueberries.

Nose of tobacco and bacon. Northern Rhone in style. A tad hot. Quite tasty. Tannins still fairly significant so decanting is a good idea. Lively acid drives it and makes it quite delightful. Very complex with some interesting floral notes on the back end. Really great with a memorable pizazz. Delicious dark chocolate, coffee notes, black cherry emerge after a few hour decant.

Nice floral pinot. Plenty of strawberry and red cherries on the palate and nose. Wish it had a bit more kick/brightness since it is a zero stem wine but pleased all around. Definetely a finely structured wine with passive tannis but with some mid to strong presence. Need to say, with each glass, the wine got better.

Decanted and served right after decanting after an hour, the wine was at its peak.

very, very nice cooler climate CA syrah. very expressive nose that continued to open up over the few hours open, medium intensity on the palate, with good depth of flavor and a lingering finish. 92-93ish

This took some time to fully develop on the front palate. Initially there was an olive tapenade feel with a great ripe berry finish. With time on air, the balance on the palates developed. A great wine at an amazing price.

A wonderful bouquet upon opening. A really great syrah that is fully developed. Needs time to decant. A fabulous balance of fruit and acid with an amazing consistency throughout.

A wonderful, ethereal syrah. Probably needs a little more time in the bottle to fully develop. Needs a long decant and airtime before it really starts to shine. A great effort.

Pop and pour.
Tasted at the end of an evening of baking cookies and enjoying time with family.
Dark purple color.
Nose offers a primary grape bouquet with dark chocolate, leather, fresh cut pine, wet earth, and dark cherries.
On the intro, dark and smoky fruit, with fine dusty tannins, opening up into cigar box, tobacco, beef and black olive notes, and dried cherry. Rich and vibrant.
A delicious wine.

Shows elements of a cooler climate vineyard that allows the grapes sufficient time on the vine to fully reach ripeness with retained vibrancy.

More on the red fruited floral side of Syrah, with just a hint of Syrah tapenade. Mid weight palate, more red fruit, cherry, and some light tannins. Really lovely balance, mouth filling but not heavy. A nice Rhône influenced US Syrah.

Berserkerday purchase, and I am so glad for that. This is a terrific value, a light-yet-complex wine with a flavor profile that's intriguing - I can't quite draw a parallel to another domestic syrah, and saying "it's kinda Cote Rotie-ish" doesn't quite cover it either. Nice florals on the nose and palate, which, btw, gets better on day two. It was still in component parts on day one. Wouldn't be surprised if it's a good idea to hold onto these for another couple of years to see what they do. I will definitely go back for more.

My 2nd try w this wine -> the 1st was a 2018 which was corked and a bummer. This one was really good -> complex, full bodied, long finish, not over the top.

I've always enjoyed Anne's Syrah and Rose, this is my first dive into her Pinot Noir. Dark color, not dense but translucent. Ripe dark cherry and pine sap on the nose. Very light bodied. Black cherry, tea leaves and an earthiness that I really dig. All on the light side though. A little edgy at first but after an hour it's rocking and rolling. Seamless across the palate with more of that pine sap/needle and sandalwood on the backside before the tannins kick in. Wonderful balance. Not sappy, not tart, just totally enjoyable. If this is a sign of things to come I'll need to make more room in the cellar for Belharra.

Very light and crisp. We paired it with a light summer meal but I think it would be best enjoyed on a patio with some fruit and a book. Lovely sipping wine

Bright burnt orange. Peach aromas. Unripe peach and touch of raspberry fruit riding a bone dry backbone. Strong salinity. Very good.
