Very nice wine with tons of fruit power, coffee, vanilla. Very smooth in the mouth, but a hair if alcohol persists.

La Sangre, I've been waiting a long time for you. You didn't disappoint. Get it, enjoy it, drink it.

Smoked meats, spice and everything nice. This is a serious Syrah - deep purple in color it is a visual blockbuster. Reminds me of a Côte Rotie.

Like the Cote-Rotie and some of the great Australian Shraz, co-fermented with Viognier to make the Syrah really pop. Wonderful wine.

Squid ink - in a good way. A big, very young Syrah.

#wbc14 Another gem from Ballard Canyon well integrated supple tannins. Underbrush, licorice, cracked-earth, blackberry and a bit smoky. Extremely well executed, but set at a price point that defies reason.
