@Nopasf -I've had a 7 year love affair with these guys... Purely heterosexual I assure you. Tho I admit, the femininity of the Fuchsia -drawn by Nate's grandmother- is as evocative, simple and aesthetic as the the wines themselves This one however, this is their first Syrah in their 'own house'. It's fucking brilliant. And it's unlike the previous vintages, almost as much as it is alike. It's gaining its own frame of reference. Apocryphal in a sense now, but just you wait! This wine is reflective of the strokes of a painter; skill is notable early on, but upon review of multiple efforts one can determine the evolution of mastery. This Syrah is stunning. Some obnoxious notes as the wine has changed over the last 2 hours: upon opening a touch of dissolved CO2 is evident, opens to a nose of cranberries (not typical Syrah blueberry) cracked black peppercorn, leather, sage, glycerin, floral aromas of jasmine -is that not a touch of Fuchsia? Blood Orange/grapefruit citrus aromas. Sunburnt leather. No reduction -how is that possible? Rustic tannins on the mouth -jagged and edgy but clean as a whistle, not grippy, not fruity not typical California crap Syrah... cranberry like acidity and tartness. A metallic element to the taste, slightly coppery, but without that copper tang, more like quartz and granite ground to powder and hitting the tongue with saline minerals and wet stone. I must have more. And the floral tones... last for days. This shit is underpriced. — 13 years ago

I've kinda got a big crush on this grape. Dark fuchsia color and big red berry nose with all the indicators of a great wine. Bing Cherries and hints of green peppercorn whilst the tannins stick to your palate gracing the finish. Actually it somewhat reminds me of a fruit driven Russian Rive Pinot Noir in many ways. Innocent and pure all the way through. — 11 years ago

Deep black cherry with fuchsia highlights. Looks young, smells potent and delicious - such a seductive wine. Lots of well ripened red and black fruit, velvety plum and balanced oak finished. Big and bold, yet smooth. Lots of character, and looking for love; we enjoyed it with homemade butternut squash, toasted almond pizza. Marina and goat cheese converse with the tannins. The acidity lingering in the finish creates sapidity and the desire to have a second bottle on hand :) — 11 years ago
