Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of two days. Consistent both days though more of the typical Syrah characteristics seemed to be more pronounced on Day 2. The 2017 “Judge Family Vineyard” pours a deep, ruby purple color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with significant staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with heady notes of black and blue fruits: blackberries, mulberries, Marion berries, blueberries, and plums along with black pepper, olive brine, incense, new leather and fine baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and immensely satisfying. This continues to be an utterly delicious example of Syrah from the New World with unmistakeable nods to the Old World. At this point, it still continues to benefit greatly from a few hours of air. Drink now with lots of patience and through 2037. — 10 months ago

A very enjoyable off the shelf back vintage here. Nothing terribly complex, but balance point has held up wonderfully after a decade in the bottle. — 9 months ago

Wee amount of wee bubbles open up this bone-dust bottle Apricot and the lightest of brown sugar bring you through to a pleasant mellow finish. Chicken sausage & peppers with salads made by Marta. With Bob, Hall, Marta, Terri: 5/29/23 — 2 years ago

Drank this way too early but still enjoyable. Would have liked to have the addition of another Bordeaux grape but the Petite Verdot balanced out the Sauvignon nicely. Would recommend aging for another 5 to 10 years. — 8 months ago

Awesome wine. Some funk initially, opened up with short decant. Strawberries, mossy bramble, some blackberries, more earth. Long finish with fruit and acid and rocks and earth. Love it. — 2 years ago
