This is killer. Reminiscent of great Condrieu, but has its own unique signature. The freshness and acid balance its gras so well, texture and delicacy from start to finish. Aromatic of course, but on the fresh spectrum; orange blossom, honeysuckle, bergamot, white peach, orange, aloe, creamy lees, delicate spice, green almond, chalk.

No formal notes. Solid, if not a standout.

A departure from the fleshy 2018, this is focused and lean with a substantial mid-palate. Depth of flavor, new world Condrieu.

My good friend Travis Allen made this syrah from Washington without any sulphur. It is light, aromatic and very much like a cru Beaujolais from the northern Rhône, yet neither.
