Tierra Alta Vineyard Syrah 2004

9.3

Blue and black fruit aromas and flavors, rich but not overripe, nicely balanced, color shows some browning, this seems mature, should hold for a few more years at least, long finish. — 8 days ago

So, I last had this TEN years ago, and speculated that it was mature then, but I obviously underestimated its staying power!!

2021 vintage. Red blend that is banging for the resto ($14) price. A definite woofer. Great large party bbq wine. 7.3.24. — 23 days ago

Black and blue fruit aromas and flavors, this seems much more youthful than the Tierra Alta, great balance, long, lingering finish, really fine, kudos to Joey!! — 8 days ago

Turner Vineyard Syrah 2007

Doug Powers

9.4

Less richness and ripeness than the Thompson, this shows a bit of green tobacco aromas, northern Rhône-like, Turner was, I believe, the coolest climate of the Syrah vineyards Joey has used (and was always my favorite Tensley Syrah), should effortlessly age 7-10 more years, long, lingering finish, terrific!! — a month ago
