Solid Cali Syrah, but it was overshadowed by an '01 Elderton Command and an '02 Quixote Petite Sirah. Nice blueberries and a hint of pepper. Fairly viscous, with a credible finish. Just missing the "Wow" factor of the other wines.

Taste from Dan Cushin @ WF OB. Approachable medium bodied syrah. Deep red fruit with hints of white pepper on the nose. Some nice balanced heat in the finish. A solid syrah. A bit one dimensional, but it may not have had time to open up.

no real tasting note here. I was way to far gone to even remember this wine besides people telling me that it was great. I had three people tell me it was one of the better Syrah's they have had in a while. I did taste this at the winery and it was very rich with big dark fruits but somewhat balanced for being tjis young.

Deep purple and ripe – big Cali syrah, but has a good dose of northern Rhone bacon fat and spice that make this pretty cool. I am not rushing out to by any, but I liked the wine a lot. (90)

Wow. Delicious. Nice legs and long finish. Great for a throw in.
