My choice for a Rhône style theme with my local group.
Definitely the oldest No Girls I’ve opened. As expected, these have a Burgundian flair to them in the way they are made when compared to Cayuse/HP/HC. Not as much depth/richness, but there is great acidity and the use of stems is clear. Faint ruby in the glass. Stemmy/green aromatics with herbs de Provence, black olive, Cayuse funk/iron on the nose. Saline, red and black berry driven on the palate with black pepper spice, truffle, beef jerky and big phenolics. Tart and acidic, I followed this over two days, and to my surprise, held up very well. Pop now. — 23 days ago
Recent addition to the cellar. Solid wine after gassing it with winepro2 oxygen. Good blue ripe fruit. Some vanilla but not too much. Pie like but with enough savory and depth to balance it out. — 2 months ago
A garnet-purple color and expressive nose with that initial Cayuse funk and notes of red berries. smoked meat, herbs, bark and dusty like minerals. Taste: beautiful silky and soft feel. Red berry fruit stands out with gamey meat, iron & bitter chocolate notes and a metallic medium, plus finish. Was looking forward to opening this 2016 again and it did not disappoint! — 15 days ago
Fantastic… better to sniff than drink! — 22 days ago
Deep, deep purple in color, almost black; blackberries, black plums, and graphite on the nose; high acidity; high tannins; tastes like camphor, black pepper, black currant, and blueberries with a long finish. I love it. What an interesting wine. — 2 months ago
Smooth Syrah at a great price, would definitely buy again! — a month ago
Beautiful label! Had this one for several years now in our cellar and as we are planning to go back to Walla Walla and visit Garrison Creek, this be a good opportunity to taste the 2015 Cab. And… hmmm, a bit disappointed. A bit off balance with strong stringent, Rhubarb like flavors and slight green undernotes. Finish also a little unsettling. By no means a bad wine but had expected more. — 2 months ago

Ten years on, starting to settle down. Still some bacon notes that work with burgers, but no new magic. — a day ago
