    September 7, 2023 - PnP but better after 15 minutes of air. An attractive dark purple in the glass. A really smooth, medium plus bodied wine with a mix of dark red, blue and black fruits, some spice, nicely balancing acidity and a touch of tannins on the finish. This wine should continue to delight for some years to come but seems to be in an excellent place right now.

    February 19, 2023 - Generally I've been disappointed in Martinelli's Syrahs. But I enjoyed this one. My last bottle of this vintage.

    December 5, 2021 - Excellent Syrah aging well w/characteristic Syrah notes. Wish we had more of this delicious 2012 Syrah.

    January 19, 2020 - Just an OK Syrah. But, definitely better than the 2011 Lolita Ranch in side by side tasting today. Martinelli makes some fabulous wines but this Syrah is just good, not fabulous.
