I highly recommend this gorgeous Syrah. A classically styled northern Rhone. Dark cherry, red currant, blackberry, this has spice and smoke, and the meaty side of Syrah. 93-94 pts as this has potential to improve. — 2 months ago

Medium ruby in color; cherry jolly ranchers, violets, and something fruity or floral I can't quite place; high acidity; medium minus tannins; tastes like pomegranates, bananas, and clay pots with a long finish. Nellie doesn't like it, but think she's just not a fan of gamay. I like it and so does Bri. Bri says it smells like Swedish Fish. — 3 months ago

Notes of raspberry, cranberry and rose water finish. Balanced tannins, has enough backbone to pair with hamachi tuna and black truffle pork dumplings, among other items. A Chef Wolfgang Puck restaurant — 7 months ago
