These are recalled impressions, not contemporaneous notes, from two nights ago, when the family council of elders met for a steak/wine pairing event at my brother Angelo’s house.

Everyone loved this one. Deep and complex. Like a great Pessac with its notes of deep gravel and cigar box. — 2 days ago

9.2

2023 vintage. Relatively crispy and super clean. Light-medium body. Akin to the fog patterns in the area. Shifting and constantly morphing. Complicated stuff and definitely not your usual CA chard. 12.10.25. — 25 days ago

2019 vintage. Not quite as bracingly dry as the last few vintages but still good depth of field-especially for the price. 12.10.25. — 25 days ago

Beautiful nose of Kirsch; loaded with sweet, dark fruit — cherry herring stands out — and minerality with mild acidity. Not as deep and complex as some vintages, lacking the garrigue and pepper elements. Still, a very good Syrah. — 16 days ago
