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
Ripe berries mixed with sandalwood and tannins. Hints of olives, earth, a distinct ripe berry flavor pops up on the finish. So good. — a month ago
