I know now this needs more time to integrate, but it’s down-soft in the background, so difficult to see a balanced future. Warm plum and black berry-currant, cranberry stuffing, rich chocolate, sherry trifle, all loosely sprinkled with fine graphite. Steamy jungle flora notes merge with hemp stem and black cherry skins. Hard chocolate entry bringing dried blackberry and even drier black cherry stripped naked in a sauna of chamomile and phantom eucalyptus outlines describing a swarthy shadow through steam. A recent denizen of the cedar benches, puffing sweet tobaccos? There is subtle power at play despite the fruit-forward leanings. I was initially on the fence with this. This one is enigmatic with a nod to Napa in the 1970s. #Napa #Walton #cab #cabernet #cabsauv4life #cabsav #california #egelhoff #EgelhoffWalton #Bobegelhoff #egelhoffwines #StHelena #sthelenacab — 7 years ago

An elegant, complex nose, just hints of black fruits and mint and cigar box. Palate was slightly faded but still had all the elements to make a wonderful mouthful. Unfortunately, I've been spoiled by a 94 I had a few years ago that was spectacular, a clear 10. This stands in its shadow but is still a very good bottle. — 11 years ago

I like everything about what these Long Shadow folks do. Fruity, big, tannic, opened up with some time, wanted more when the bottle ran out. — 10 years ago

I love the Long Shadow wines first and foremost. But this Syrah from Duval rocks and may out impress the other wines in the group. Big and super luscious. Could definitely stand more time in the cellar. Consumed over 36 hours. — 10 years ago

Jayer makes the best wines in off years just like 86. He says anyone can make a good wine in years like 85 but the shadow years are ones to prove one's mettle. He proves it here even in this village wine. Exceptional balance, purity of fruit, almost hard candy Flavors and ethereal mouth feel...just unforgettable. If I ever find this wine again...buying all of it! — 11 years ago

This is one of my favorite wines. Not what you expect out of Syrah. Smells like guava, passion fruit. Bright raspberry, spice has some shadow but really isn't there. So smooth and fun, I would drink it everyday. — 10 years ago

Tastes of yellow seed grass with hints of plastic. Fantastic! The flavour is beyond delectable. It just tickles my fancy like no other. It swims down your throat like a yellowfin tuna swimming downstream the St. Lawrence River. Sometimes i dream of this wine while watching the stars on my private island. — 10 years ago
