Veeerry friendly Shiraz at this price. Cherry up front, red apple tobacco, good structure and a frenchman's even hand taming those tannins. — 8 years ago

12' Pharaohomans Paso Robles Westside .We needed a little spice in our life. Pizza, wine & a SKINS win! The first two ,check those boxes… football gods?
This is a small 3 acre estate in Paso Robles. The 2012 is 98% Syrah 2% Grenache.
A friend of mine turned me onto this wine last year. Loved the wine… although we both thought it needed a bit of time . It still does! I've decanted this now for 3+ hours. Should've decanted it into a lemonade container🤔
The color in the decanter, looks almost black. In the glass purplish (shitty color description). Boysenberry, black chocolate ,black licorice, spicy, Hershey's chocolate syrup🎯. Snap into a Slim Jim- The whole kit & caboodle. I would let them rest another year or 5 😳. This is a heavyweight contender wine. BIG BOY Syrah.
Parker gave the 12' 95pts. He gave the 13' 97pts. He loves these high alcohol, destroy your palate , in your face wines. AGAIN- Just my opinion. — 9 years ago

Fair to say the jury is still out on whether Shiraz works in the northern part of Margaret River but this is very good. Plummy with a hint of butterscotch (oak) and touch of black pepper. Medium bodied - fleshy with softening tannins. Short term cellaring. Very satisfying. — 9 years ago
Very nice Syrah driven by blue fruits with a nice plush mouthfeel. Thanks @Andrew Steffensmeier ! — 10 years ago
As purple as wine gets. Really good , I would buy this again — 12 years ago

Probably one of the better Chards from Gary Farrell. Buttah factor = 6.5. This wine has lots of honeysuckle on the nose. Getting some butter, but not as much as the palate would indicate. This wine is big on the front. Glycerine and butter initially but goes to honey and melon and a little mango. There was a semi tart to the back. Wine finishes a bit short and much more crisp than the front. Overall a very enjoyable chard. — 8 years ago
