Community Tasting Notes 10

  January 23, 2022 - This garnet colored wine has aromas of blackberry and fig with slow legs and moderate sediment. Flavors of red currant, pomegranate combine with an oak and minerality to yield a moderate body wine. This wine definitely has another 5 - 7 years of window for consuming. I would recommend waiting at least another 1 - 2 years before opening my next bottle.

  January 19, 2022 - First - I like most everything Peay grows! So, trying to be "fair" in writing this review is tough. Flavors of black fruit, mild to slightly bold body, mild tannins with smooth acidity; moderate finish. Yes, it is a California syrah (but in a blind tasting would give a stronger impression). The wine is drinking beautifully now, but also has plenty of life in the bottle. Great job Peay team!

  January 23, 2020 - Needed to open up with an hour or so of air, but then was lovely. Tart blackberry fruit, zippy acidity, savory in the right dose - an old world styled Syrah.

  March 7, 2019 - Tasting with Andy Peay (Washington, DC): Rich blackberry fruit but the wine is balanced wonderfully - grippy tannins, zesty acidity. Tangy fruit laced with complex spicy, pepper, violet, earth tones. I'd love to see what this does in five to eight years.
