Bottle at Eleven Madison Park. Savvy pick by my dining companion. So complex. Skin contact white with luscious tropical fruit, some kind of light floral incense (sandalwood?). Magically delicious. — 8 years ago

Big props to Girl and the Fig for excellent service including decanting this wine prior to our arrival.

A very extracted deep purple with no signs of Browning.

Relatively tame aromas of deep berry, baking spice, faint black pepper, juniper berry, menthol, red flower. Heady but not overtly alcoholic.

The palate is a different story. Explosive, much more tart, and red fruits. Pomegranate, cranberry, red cherries overlie the gamey, meaty, olive tapenade of Syrah. Dense, chewy, but not heavy or particularly hot. For 15.7% light on its feet. The tannins are never intrusive but provide needed structure along with surprising bright acidity. Finish just goes on and on.

An unforgettable wine that I am glad we got to experience. Not exactly my personal style but really complete and enjoyable. This wine also feels like it’s just hitting its stride. — 4 years ago

Bought this at the winery several years ago during a trip to Napa wine country with my sister & brother-in-law. We’re all in Panama for the holidays. I brought several of the wines with us to share and relive our Napa experience. — 7 years ago
