October 15, 2022 - Really, just excellent. Layered, long, and immersive. Excellent smooth red and purple fruit, rich bacon fat, and a hint of smoky spice. So good. This wine is holding just fine. Will try the next in a year or two,

November 25, 2016 - Popped and poured with grilled bone-in strip steaks. Aroma is full of dark berry and has some pepper to it as well. The taste doesn't really seem to have the pepper come through as much - it is more subtle. It has much more of just the straight up blueberry fruit.

November 30, 2015 - Gorgeous syrah, like a Northern Rhone much more than California. Too bad they're all gone!
