July 17, 2022 - Absolutely superb... Generous sweet black fruit, soft integated tannins, plenty of pop. But really it's all about the garrigue! This bottle brought that Old World magic that's oh so hard to find domestically. Cracked pepper and olive, sticky mix of fresh herbs. Lovely.
March 28, 2021 - Too old. Flat and a little sour.
December 8, 2020 - 气味很好，whole cluster特征。口中和气味一致，刚开始有点重，热回味很快散掉了。相当好，感觉被一个元素dorminate,略欠丰富。但是九年的酒，一点都没有age的迹象。
第三天，气味还是很好，口中，变和谐均匀了，非常好。
May 11, 2019 - Wow, this was a real thinker... this expression of Syrah found the four tasters struggling for descriptors, but what a tasty struggle! On the nose we found tapenade, thyme, white pepper, blueberries and sage. On the palate we found all of the above, plus earthy flavors like mushroom and escargot. The finish went on forever and as all the savory flavors fell away, the fruit just lingered. I've never tasted any wine quite so spicy and was thrilled pairing this stunner with grass fed filets, brussel sprouts and mushroom risotto.
October 7, 2018 - lots of pepper and plum; more savory mediterranean notes
April 24, 2018 - Opened and let breathe for two hours. Dark fruit on the nose. The palate was dark berries, plums and spice. The finish long and smooth. Just a really nice bottle of syrah.
April 22, 2018 - I’ve yet to be, but this is how I imagine the scent of a cool morning breeze in Provence. Gave this a double decant and then immediately enjoyed it.
March 11, 2018 - Delicious blackberry and olive notes on the nose and palate with pepper and mineral notes. Tasty acidity and tannins on the moderate finish.
April 30, 2017 - Three hour decant, the nose began with the deep, rich dark cherry/blackberry that I expected but quickly faded, perhaps less decant time should have happened. The palate was disappointing, with no tannins and minimal acidity, this was flabby. The flavors ran closer to wine that had toppled over or had a touch too much temperature at some point, it lacked the syrah characteristics I was looking for. All in all I would say this was not representative of the maker or the varietal.
November 14, 2016 - Gotta love Pax Syrah's. An old world expression of the Syrah grape wrapped with new world fruit. Classic Syrah flavor profile with blueish fruit and pen ink with a touch of iodine and definitely cracked pepper on the finish. This wine needs food, so don't drink it by itself. YUM!
