December 15, 2023 - Good, but I expected better given the vintage. Flavors overall seem muted and lacking complexity. Black pepper and olive predominate over fruit. Tasted over two nights with consistent notes.

August 21, 2021 - Very good n Rhône Syrah..this wine favors the black pepper, olive tapenade, Forest floor, over the fruit….
The red blue fruit is there but def under the other flavors…finishes with a notable salty olive mineral finish that persists for quite some time….
Fans of classic hermitage will dig this big boy….
Prime time now but I think this has many many years to go in the cellar.. -

December 21, 2019 - Tastes like a Hermitage that migrated from the northern to the southern Rhone so it could bulk up. About as dark and powerful as a Hermitage gets. Juicy, fragrant and pleasurable, once you recover from the impact.

January 31, 2019 - Exceptional value . Mouth watering juiciness . Intense dark red fruits , violets and forest floor funk. Volouptuous if I could use only one word. It's a steal at the price.
