This bottle is a special one because it is the last bottle I have from when I worked at this winery back in 2012. On the nose, there’s dark fruit up front, blackberry, blueberry, currants, layered with leather, tobacco, a little campfire smoke, and a hint of forest floor. On the palate, there’s still a thread of acidity, but the fruit has mostly stepped back. What lingers is a touch of dried cherry and more of those earthy, evolved notes: turned soil and well-integrated oak. — 20 days ago
Light and fresh. Citrus, stone fruit and flint. This is alright. — 8 days ago
Pretty simple, not sure what’s in the blend other than Cab and Merlot. Up front red fruit with medium tannins and a very short finish. A perfect pair and of the same caliber as the Panda Express I had for dinner. — 19 days ago
This is very interesting. Less acidity than I would have guessed. Plums, nectarines, raspberries and tart cherries with some sourdough. Not bad at all, pretty tasty! — 23 days ago
Lemon, grapefruit, honeysuckle, nectarine, wet concrete. Light-ish body with a shorter finish. — 13 days ago
Opened too early, high acidity with bright red fruit flavors. Cherry cola all day with some oak notes and leather as well as raspberries and gooseberries. Really fresh and nice. In another 4-6 years this will be incredible. — 22 days ago
This is very boring and one note, just peaches and nothing else. — 25 days ago

Solid, out of a magnum. Needed a few hours to loosen up but pretty good, pretty classic dry creek Syrah. — 4 days ago
