January 14, 2024 - Interesting nose of baked black cherries, rosemary, sage, white pepper and wood smoke. Medium bodied with silky tannins, eucalyptus, rosemary and black cherry. Drink now. 89

December 28, 2023 - Past its prime but still fun. Thinner like a pinot, strawberry, tootsie roll, higher acid.1 bottle left

October 17, 2023 - Aromas of medicinal herbs/eucalyptus, earth, smoke and culinary herbs like rosemary. The palate is juicy and loaded with red cherry, raspberry and spices. This is fully mature and should be drunk soon, but should have a few more good years. 90

January 16, 2023 - Better than last bottle (review Feb 2022). No metallic or out of place flavors. Great change up wine. Lighter body but full of mature and fully developed flavors.

February 10, 2022 - Darker body with some bricking. Nose is powerful, has cherry, toffee, floral note like. Palate is lighter weight, has bramble, more cherry, coffee, rose petal. Aftertaste has fruit but also a bitter metallic note. Somewhat like a tootsie pop. Give this time to breathe and settle down. A lot going on but overall a good mature Syrah with time left.
