    January 31, 2013 - Color is black purple, Nose is asphalt black blue fruit and beef, palate is earthy asphalt black fruit, almost Boushey Vineyard (WA) like. Alcohol never notices and big tannic long finish make this my favorite of 5 CA syrah drank/tasted over two days.

    Thank you to Linda at The Wine Closet in Camarillo for the introdcution to Central Coast AVA's and their Syrahs.

    November 1, 2012 - Paso Robles Syrah. Inky purple in the glass. On the palate, fruit-forward, Port-like intensity, full-bodied, high-octane (16.5 alcohol), blackberry, vanilla, toasty oak with hints of Christmas spice and mocha. Lengthy finish. Plenty of heat and unbalanced now, but should resolve into something marvelous in 3-5 years. Outstanding effort with phenomenal QPR. I paid around $25 for this wine. Only Saxum, Sina Qua Non and occassionally, Herman Story or Booker make a better Syrah in this region.
    Grapes are sourced from St. Peter of Alcantara vineyard. The next James Berry? Multiple bottles tasted with consistent notes.
