December 18, 2014 - Blind Dinner at Browntrout (Browntrout - Chicago, IL): Served blind. Definitely had the signature of a powerful new world syrah. Lots of power and density on the nose and palate, but it's just hard for me to like without acidity. This didn't have much, and therefore, I found it a bit cloying.

December 18, 2014 - Blind Dinner at Browntrout (Chicago, IL): Served blind. Slightly more restrained than the Bedrock I had beside it. But that's not saying much. This, too, screams young new world syrah. Overripe, big, alcoholic, and oaky. No thanks.

August 3, 2014 - Sadly, no notes were taken but this was a beautiful bottle of wine. Great aromatics on the nose, big rush of flavor on the palate, nice silky texture, and some beautiful acidity on the finish. Seemed pretty open, but I would be in no hurry to drink these as they should have many, many more good years ahead.

February 1, 2014 - My heavens was this nice. Dense ruby. Very expressive nose of liqueur-like black fruits, flowers with some spicey nuance. Very rich but lively across the palate. The wine has great fruit rich density without losing any energy. This is clearly a california syrah. I wonder if it will get much better. I look forward to following it.

January 21, 2014 - This bottle just improves with each tasting. Wonderfully nuanced, very deep syrah. It is really tight at opening, so a good two hour decant would be well rewarded. Great tannic backbone and wonderfully spicy, almost leathery syrah in the mid palate with a very long finish.
