September 1, 2013 - Drank side by side with a 2005 Arcadian Syrah (Purisima Mountain Vineyard). This was the crowd favorite by far. Well structured syrah, with complexity, hints of berries, and spices, and a pleasant long finish. Very enjoyable now!

April 5, 2013 - Long decant for 3+ hrs. Nose fragrant and aromatic violets,vanilla,bacon,meat. Full bodied with a smooth texture. Blue and blackberry flavors. Nicely integrated wine that is drinking very well now. Lasting finish that had me reaching for another sip. 5,14,16,6=91

December 24, 2012 - With Xmas eve lambchops. We had this and a Crozes-Hermitage, and this was to my thinking the more N. Rhone-like of the two. Savory, with some olive and a whole lot of roasted cured meat, like bacon in a glass. Nice, smooth tannins. Some dried blueberry and violet notes as you would expect. I buried my nose in the glass and reveled in the violet and meaty notes. Second bottle I have had of this wine and this one really was shining.
