Lots of press on the Cabs but I think this guys Syrah’s steal the show. This is the -16 Halcon and the -16 Las Madras Esther block. Halcon has bright red fruit, orange peel, fresh acidity, and a briny peppery finish. Pax-ish (high praise IMO) and a terrific food wine. Las Madras has pure perfectly ripened black and blue fruit. Both are outstanding, but I think the Halcon takes it by a fair margin. — 6 years ago

It’s an anomaly to me why we don’t remember to cellar Zinfandel more often. This Turley from Lodi reminds me why we should. The aroma offers a distinctive patina - antique shop and dried roses, sage and thyme. At 21 years, the alcohol is still full throttle, but offers a very gratifying warmth. Thanks for bringing, Esther :) — 7 years ago
