Stunningly floral right out of the gate: roses, lilies, peonies, lilac, with green and black olive underneath. Palate is juicy and elegant, with tiny-berry fruit intensity, outrageous fruit quality, supernatural balance, beautiful purity, and a long, persistent finish. Very young, but already a huge step up over 2021 and 2022. 9.6 for now. — 2 days ago

Just terrific. Nose has a bit of wildness to it but also florals, red berry fruit, Palate is elegant and juicy. Almost a Burgundian interpretation of Cote Rotie with how red the fruit is and how supple the mouthfeel is. The elegance here is inspiring. 21 is so so killer. — a year ago

This was a good Cote-Rôtie for its price point. Meaty and smoky, with a nice nose. Decanted maybe 20 minutes before serving. Served with a reverse-seared whole picanha, accompanied with roasted tomatoes and seasoned Greek yogurt, tomato cucumber and red onion salad, and wild rice medley. Good for a night at home with guests. — 3 months ago

A stunning wine. Superb aromas of flowers and meat. Violets and red betty fruit but really stunning florals. The palate is where this wine really shines. Just ultra finessed and refined and at 9 years old really starting to silken. The texture was like Musigny. Just awesome. — a year ago

Classic cool climate Syrah. Vibrant, elegant dark red and blue fruit with beautiful forest floor, mineral, earthy under notes infused with fine polished soft tannins guiding you to a soft lingering finish. — 2 years ago

2013 silky perfection drinking fab in 2025. All the leathery, smoky, BBQ, peppery blackcurrant one can have in a glass. Every taste brings something new. So smooth and wonderful — 9 months ago

@delectable This is not syrah it is the blanc.

Nose: lovely sexy apricot. Some honey.

Palate: apricot honey. Some pleasant oiliness.
