One of the best Syrahs I’ve had. Complex nose of bittersweet chocolate, raspberries, cherries, smoke. The wine was very focused and fresh for 14 years old. Blackberry, black pepper, graphite, with a hit of menthol on the finish. Sadly, the last bottle of 2006 they had. Would def buy this again. #dumol #theunionhotel — 6 years ago
A beautiful, soft nose with notes of plum, blackberries, black raspberries, kirsch and a touch of wild flowers. The palate is surprisingly light and elegant with bright acidity. Flavors of black raspberries, kirsch and a touch of soy lead to notes of oak and spice. The finish is long and elegant with lingering acidity and bramble fruits. — 8 years ago

Iron fist in a velvet glove! 23 years old but still a puppy! Took ages to open up but showing layer upon layer of nuanced flavors and typical Margaret River gravelly salty tannin. Amazing — 7 years ago
Interesting and a little atypical nose. Just-cut cedar, moist humus (not hummus), and smoke-tinged blackberry. Some rock dust too, which i expect from Paso, but not from RRV. Full-flavored, briary blackberry fruit in the mouth. The back half of the palate has some peppery heat (which I would not expect from a Zin clocking in at only 14.2%). Dry and drying on the finish. Great with my pasta. — 8 years ago
From 90 years old, almost ancient vines this winner shows what true Zinfandel is all about; fruit packed and big, but with a freshness present that is balancing the wine throughout. The intense flavor and broad midpalate is embracing the 15,3 % alcohol which is barley being noticed, unless you drink to much of course..

Very nice flavor with strong fruit but not overwhelming. Little bit of spice, but fairly good balance overall slightly biased towards fruit side. Finish is medium long but not very tannic or acidic — 8 years ago
Beautiful drinking now at 29 years old. Supple, soft with plenty of fruit. Long rich finish. Drinks well now but will hold there for the couple years. — 9 years ago
