August 18, 2018 - PnP. Relatively light bodied. Nice, consistent, decent tastes of red & darker fruits.

October 17, 2017 - Somewhat disappointing example of an otherwise favorite bottling. Great nose but harsh tart taste

June 5, 2017 - The most pinot-like syrah that I have ever tasted; kept rechecking the bottle to make sure that I was drinking what I thought I was drinking; red fruit on the nose and to taste; like of the meaty, black fruit flavors common to CA syrahs. Pleasant enough to drink, but not at all what I expected.
