Still young for our taste, but pretty nice. Dark appearance with a full body, integrated tannins, nice longish finish. Rocks nose, but not overly funky. I should see if we can get more to keep for a few years.

Tasting at Rotie Cellars (SoDo, Seattle WA): This pours a rich dark red color. It is pungent, savory, and succulent with well balanced tones of dark red cherries, licorice, violets, black raspberries, herbs, spices, olive paste, and some currant notes. The Full bodied feel is well balanced and plush with tart, medium+ acidity and silky, medium tannins. I'm consistently a fan of this wine and this vintage is no different. It shows off the ripeness of Washington while still clearly being a savory syrah.

More Rocks of MF nose but also some alcohol. Really ride a deep time vibe with rich black fruits and old rocks underneath. Loam. Has a compactness to it that will clearly unwind while being precise. Beautiful wine.

Delicious. Structured. Salt and iron.
Not as concentrated nor as complex as the 2020 vintage.
