Smooth, almost a spicey and whiskey tone as the finish. 😍 — 4 years ago
An absolutely wonderful Syrah, from nose to finish! Wonderful medium-bold’ish red with notes of dark raspberries, plum, and a touch of cherry. Delicious! — 5 years ago
Nose is leather and cherries. Taste is reserved with same characteristics. Decent tannins and long finish. Dining at United Polaris Lounge IAH — 2 months ago
Pale lemon color.
Aromas of tropical fruit, herbaceous.
Dry. Flavors of lime, kiwi, papaya, hint of green bell pepper, some minerality. Bright, fresh, and juicy!

Interesting and seamless blend. Syrah, pinotage, Cabernet, petit Verdot. Red spicy fruit meet s’mores. Earth, smoke. Great wine that is both very interesting, but comforting. Needs a better label. Seems like a generic brand-only effort, only the wax stop gives the impression of exclusive. — 4 years ago

Surprisingly good Cabernet Sauvignon from the Texas Hill Country Becker winery.. The grapes are actually grown in the Texas High Plains. I had drank another Becker Iconoclast years ago and it was very good. The wine was smooth with strong hints of chocolate. Paired well with red meat. Drank in December 2023. — a year ago
Visiting Fredericksburg TX for a few days. This is TX hill country and has a big winery community. Never tried any TX wines before but found a few surprises here. We tasted at Becker earlier today but not this wine. $30 on the restaurant wine list. Becker wasn’t our favorite stop but it is the only local winery represented on their list. Overall local wines seemed overpriced compared to CA wines. Just realized we had an older vintage (2018) on our last trip from Houston to Anaheim. It’s interesting that most of the grapes used in the local wines come from Lubbock (panhandle) area. Don’t know where these grapes came from, or what varietals are present. — 3 years ago

No notes. Silky white flower palate, medium bodied, mineral core. Saludos Armenia!! Paired beautifully with spicy white bean stew with Harissa & jalepeno. Was inspired after watching Somm 4, which documents an Armenian iconoclast fighting the odds to revive his native wine culture. — 7 days ago
