Bedrock Wine Co.

Griffin's Lair Vineyard Syrah 2016

I think this is worth seeking out if you're a CA Syrah fan. Great dirt and "pepper" (my first btl where I said "I get this pepper thing") with a nice balance of mature fruit. Drinking really nice right now. Enjoy! — 6 months ago

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. — 5 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.
