  March 8, 2024 - Leather, forest floor and dark berries on the nose. On the palate blackberries, smooth tannins and savory notes. This has gotten better with time.

  December 3, 2023 - A nose of dark fruits and spices, dark purple in color. A medium to full bodied red, with blackberry, plum, Asian spice and pepper on long finish, very good. www.winelx.com

  January 31, 2023 - A big bold Syrah that is nevertheless smooth as silk. We loved this one.

  December 7, 2022 - A bit syrupy for my taste. It took an awfully long time (over a day) in the decanter before the savory notes started to come to the front. Probably best to wait on the 2013 and ‘14.

  November 18, 2022 - Horrible, bitter finish similar to cough syrup. Thought I perhaps had a bad bottle the first time but this is bottle 3 of 3 and I’m glad they’re gone.
