Paired with burgers. Has held up surprisingly well. Still fresh, very Californian, lots of jammy power and high alcohol. Not subtle. Some harshness in the last quarter of the bottle.

bright ruby with no signs of ageing and light body. cherries and raspberries dominate a nose that has hints of sappy herbs. sour cherry, cranberry and some blood orange are the dominant fruit flavour in an acidity-driven palate. a subtle vein of puerh tea provides base flavours, its modicum of complexity, and all that is left of tannins. moderate length with some fresh raspberry sweetness.

better on the second day with mellowed acidity that allows a bit more depth to show. no structure left to resolve, and fading fruit… so no use in holding. drink up!

13% AbV; appellation-level blend from fog-influenced vineyards: 53% Red Car Estate (Ft. Ross/Seaview area)/ 18% Zephyr Farms/ 14% Platt/ 10% Bohemian Station/ 5% Hagan (all those in the Freestone/Occidental area); aged around eleven months in 7% new French oak.

Consistent with prior notes. Fruit starting to fade a bit, but not in a bad way. Raspberry, pomegranate, citrus (blood orange), tea, rose petals, crushed granite, spice, redwood. Medium body. Long-minus finish. One of my favorite Pinots.

Citrus notes. Exceptional acidity. A staple of Red Car wines which makes me thoroughly love them. The faintest hint of oak as well. Very enjoyable and drinkable wine in any setting.

2/15/2024 - ralstenm Likes this wine: 92 points

Starting to rust in glass. Red berry caramalized fruit, floral bouquet with ocean and forest on the nose. Fruit taking a back seat to terroir on palate. Acidity prominent. Likely past prime, look forward to younger version.

Was a little thin on initial pour. I decanted approx two hours and it fattened up a little. Nice nose and smooth finish.

Pale orange colour. Medium nose with strawberry, raspberry, rhubarb, sea salt, wet stone and honeysuckle. Medium taste of strawberry, lemon, rhubarb, wet stone and sea salt. Long and dry finish. High acidity. Medium (-) body. A very good and well made Californian Rosé that feels like it’s from a much cooler climate. Needed half an hour to open. Drink now. Goes well as an petit if, or with fish or shellfish.

Light bodied, smooth and almost delicate. Lots of California fruit. Big raspberry, pomegranate, and some cherry. Thyme, brine and a bit of baking spice.

A lovely little thing.

Beautiful garnet in the glass. Initial burst of floral nose now with earthy coastal woods, pepper and spices and red fruit as I drink. Absolute perfect balance of fruit, acidity and tannins. Strawberry, rasberry and sweet tart. Forest floor and rose petal. Paired with beef lettuce wraps. Outstanding!

2002 Red Car Syrah The Fight

California more

1/13/2024 - StefanAkiko Likes this wine: 96 points

96-97 tonight.
Two hours in the decanter before decanting it again at the restaurant.

Beautiful red colour.
Huge, very attractive nose of distinction and then some. A pure, red-berried Syrah with omph and a touch of cola, chocolate and sensitive herbs.
In the mouth it sings! Intense, laser sharp and delicious. Acidity perfect for a multi-course dinner. Long, purity in a bottle, complex and utterly delicious.

Still young, inching its way to the plateau.
We have one bottle to go, and will keep it for another 5-7 years. Expecting it to have moved on a little bit towards its plateau. (Don't trust the guys hooked on juice and jam!!!)

At Alte Liebe, Yokohama.

Compote, then after a while, tar. A superior example of *this kind of thing*. Like imagine if La Crema or Sonoma Cutrer were good.

(btw the person who said "time to drink this" is delusional it has yonks left)

The opening wine for a Cabernet night with my wine group. Enjoyed by the entire group (8 of us). It tastes like there is very little new oak. Even those that claim to dislike Chardonnay enjoyed it.

Marred by a disagreeable vinegar acidity which sometimes ebbed but kept returning over 5 days of being tasted. Often included a sharp and volatile smell. Despite being stored perfectly, the cork was weak and crumbly.
