    June 9, 2017 - Rich and viscous, but had a dry short finish, cellared well, tight, dumb or done, not sure.

    February 28, 2015 - Aged nicely, improved with decanting for 30-60 minutes. Consumed with organic grass-fed beef burger, brought out nice mild spiciness of wine.

    March 8, 2014 - Consistent with prior notes, opened up nicely over several hours.

    March 2, 2013 - This exceptionally well made syrah submits caramelized fennel, racy spiced plums, blackberry, smoked cherry and molasses scents. The palate offers unyielding density, complex red fruit, rehydrated cherries, sassafras and earthy depth. Finish is powerful, elegant and refined. Tight as a snare drum, this soft and silky syrah will yield many years of pleasure.

    January 13, 2013 - Brownish-purple, opaque, with slow, fat legs. Nose of buttered cinnamon rolls, grass, and alcohol. Palate of purple fruit, minerals, full-bodies with good acidity. Q92/D89

Washington Wine Report

  • By Sean Sullivan
    2/9/2011 (link) ** points

    (Gilbert Cellars Estate Syrah Wahluke Slope) Aromatics of smoke, embers, and blueberries along with a touch of raspberries. The tannins come off as quite aggressive and oak make it a bit difficult to get at the fruit at times. Doc Stewart Vineyard.
