Inky as a frightened cuttlefish, intense black fruit without being voluptuous about it. — 10 years ago

This is so well rounded! Dried flowers on the nose, followed by a palate with cherry up front and black licorice (anise) that's been rolled around in the dirt and picked up some spice along the way on the finish. — 10 years ago

Black raspberry, leather, and cocoa. We really should try to age some of their wine, but we seem to keep enjoying them young! — 10 years ago

Dark near-black purple that clings to the glass. Blackberry, black blueberry, caramel on the nose and full palate. Medium acidity. Medium tannins (appropriate for its age). Lengthy dark finish. Fine New World representation of the variety. — 10 years ago

The King Kong of Syrah. Hugh black fruit. Big acidity and tannic+ that will develop complexity with age. Adventurous now, but will hit its prime 2017-2019.  — 11 years ago

Old school California Cab. Dark black fruit and herbal notes of eucalyptus and cedar. Balanced alcohol and body. Nice fruit but not over-ripe. Tannins dry the palate on the medium plus finish. Let this breath for 2 hours or age until 2020x — 10 years ago
