March 27, 2022 - Complex, precise, focused. This is a great wine. Black fruits and black pepper, with well-integrated oak, and notes of violet, thyme, black olives, and forest floor. Lovely ripe tannins and plenty of acidity. This wine has real elegance - drink or keep.

March 17, 2022 - Deep ruby. Pronounced. Violet, rose, black fruit, black cherry, black plum, ripe, red cherry, white pepper. Clove, smoke, dried herbs, mushroom, prune.
Dry, high acidity. Med+ tannin, chalky-fine grained/ripe/ grippy. Med alcohol. Med+ body. Long.
Very fresh. Great balance btw acidity and concentration.
Complex. Well defined clusters. Oak is very subtle.
Plenty of life ahead. -

November 15, 2019 - Classic Syrah, with black pepper and a certain cool poise, and very easy to drink, but feels a little too polished and doesn't offer any excitement.
