Served blind with Saxum 2005 and this won the round by a touch. Earthy and complex. Fruit had diminished since I last had it. But secondary characteristics are moving in that I really like. — 11 years ago
Janasse rocks! love this wine. it could hold its own with Alban or Saxum or the best Australians. not French in style at all. this is a massive fruit bomb even at age 10. I would love to taste this in another 10 years. today it is a little one dimensional. but I think as the fruit calms down it will add complexity. — 10 years ago

James Berry Vineyard Syrah. Made famous by Saxum, but Toft does a wonderful job with this blend. — 11 years ago
My favorite PR winery and one of my overall favorites, at least since I am still on the waiting list for Saxum.. — 13 years ago
Big, ripe, dense, concentrated, complex and Saxum-like (2011 vintage be damned), which makes sense since it is probably the only Paso wine that is more expensive (on release) than Saxum. Balanced for what it is and very enjoyable from a pure hedonism standpoint. Not sure that age will do it any favors. — 10 years ago
Crazy awesome. Tons of black pepper, smoke, tobacco and bacon fat. Luscious dark fruits. Very fruit forward palate. Waaaaaay too young. — 11 years ago
