December 15, 2022 - Combination of deep, decadent, blue fruit and a little bit of "funk". Meaty notes, with an undertone of mushroom and black pepper. Unique wine that's enjoyable to drink

July 22, 2021 - Agree with Crunge, a little unbalanced at this time. Relic makes good syrahs, so suspect this will come around with more time.

March 20, 2021 - Too young at the moment. Blackberries and raspberries dominate this full-bodied wine, but it's bitter and unbalanced at this stage. Let this rest another year or more. Definitely has promise for the future.

December 1, 2019 - This Syrah is always a great representation of what CA Syrahs can be. Dark cherry, blackberry and licorice with a nice herbal nose. Slightly acidic with aggressive tannins that open up in a decanter. The finish draws out for a good 10 seconds.
