First note: black pepper galore. As it opens the pepper dissipates, leading to dried flowers and chalky earth. Under-notes of cherry. Great acidity with moderate tannins. — 3 years ago

Stunningly good. Slate, stone fruits and creme brûlée/sweetness on the finish. — 3 years ago

Nose has chalkboard dust, mashed cherries, raspberry, ripe currant, oak bark, (minor) moist garden soil, milk chocolate bar and moist pipe tobacco.

Palate has crushed cherries, orange peel, ripe black currant, blackberry, graphite and medium tannins. Long finish, amazing bottle this evening.

About two years since our last bottle, doing very, very well this evening, can hold another 6-12Y (2026-32) in proper storage. — 5 years ago

Needs a bit of time to open as a bit harsh in the front. Nice dark fruit and spice. — 7 years ago

Pop and pour. I like my Viognier a little more floral. That being said, this is still a ovely example. On the nose: soft herbs, pollen, maybe soft dried wildflowers. On the palate: good acidity, lovely density, maybe slightly advanced with lemon, dried herbs and cucumber on the palate. Not oxidized, but just lacking lift. — 3 years ago

This is really good! Grilled bacon, tomato tapenade, charcoal. Ripe black fruit. Punches well above it’s weight. — 4 years ago

It's sharp. Dark fruit (a plum for sure) and leather. Short oaky finish. — 4 years ago

This is still an ass- kicking wine. Big, bold, Stoney, not your daddy’s gamay. Has that intense candied cherry mouth, but in a sophisticated way. Awesome stuff. — 6 years ago

Buttered popcorn nose. Sharp berry fruit, light texture and tannins. Lingered red berry. Great with beef tenderloin — 7 years ago

This smell and tastes more Northern Rhône than the vast majority of Walla Walla Syrahs I’ve had. Nose is smoky, iron-y, bloody, with spicy sharp blackberry in the background. Relatively (for Walla Walla) lean and savory in the mouth, it’s got surprisingly good acidity. Should go well with the steak I’m about to grill outside. — 3 years ago

On a bit of a W.T. kick lately. The 13 is tasting stunning right now! So much character, absolutely great on its own. — 4 years ago
