Blind Tasting of Syrah vs Cab: A hint of pepper on the nose (?). Earthy. My wife thought maybe even a little bret. I did not pick that up but I did get the earthiness.
Smooth mouthfeel and short finish. Tannins were non existent.
After the first smell, I struggled to get much on the nose or palate. It was just kind of there without much complexity.
I was a little disappointed and had higher hopes for this one.

Paso Robles Winery Visits; 8/30/2023-9/1/2023: Purple/ruby color. Fragrant high toned red fruit. Medium weight with blue and some red fruit and a very good soil edge. Elegant and refined, fluid feel, softer acidity than prior wines and not terribly tannic. I really liked this and it should be very approachable early.

Very light bodied. Red fruit dominant. Clear flavors of syrah but very feminine and reminds me a bit of a Pinot. Still a baby and could use some more time in the bottle.
