    March 1, 2023 - Perhaps I will revise my view over the next few hours but this is very disappointing. It’s super dry without any fruit. Can’t drink it

    January 28, 2023 - Popped and poured. Initially, this showed quite tannic. That subsided somewhat after about an hour. I'd suggest a decant. Moderately expressive nose. Savory elements with dark fruits on the palate. By the next day, the tannin had come into balance.

  • Eric Guido Likes this wine:

    January 1, 2022 - The 2013 Bedrock Syrah Griffin's Lair is darkly seductive, mixing just enough California plumy fruit ripeness with smoky minerals, dried meat, earth and animal tones that together find that perfect harmonious Rhone-inspired mix. It's silky and smooth with a vanilla tinge to its tart black berries, which are neatly offset by a twang of sour citrus. There's just enough tannic grip to keep the 2013 tactile and lightly structured as it tapers off incredibly long with violet florals, lavender and hints of licorice.

    September 8, 2021 - Decanted 3 hrs. This syrah was in a very good place, structured, but soft enough around the edges that suggest this is in the early side of its drinking window. It carried the unmistakable note of a freshly shaved vanilla bean (not oaky) that I have seen in middle aged WA syrah but never a CA one.
