Pax Mahle Wines

Obsidian Vineyard Syrah 2005

Reached pretty far back in the cellar for this one. Pax Mahl was making some terrific wines out of his eponymous winery (Obsidian and Griffin’s Lair were my favorites), until some sort of flare-up between him and Joe Donelan eventually resulted in them splitting the vineyard accesses between them and shutting down the winery. After 15 years, this wine is still going strong. Great example of a cooler climate north coast syrah. — 4 years ago

These early-mid 2000’s vintages for Pax were awesome.

God I love those early Pax Syrahs... saving my last ‘04 Griffin’s Lair for some memorable birthday.

Griffin's Lair Vineyard Syrah 2007

Last week Duncan told me to open these. Holy shit. Wife drank most of it. Bought on release, all the adolescent tannin and hyper fruit have mellowed. Reminds me of Gonon with the salinity, the focus, and the scary balance at 14.7%. A meditation. — 7 months ago
