Wife likes it quite a bit. Hubby found it a bit thin and flabby

This is surprisingly good. Very reminiscent of Cote Rotie wines.

PnP. Relatively light bodied. Nice, consistent, decent tastes of red & darker fruits.

Somewhat disappointing example of an otherwise favorite bottling. Great nose but harsh tart taste

The most pinot-like syrah that I have ever tasted; kept rechecking the bottle to make sure that I was drinking what I thought I was drinking; red fruit on the nose and to taste; like of the meaty, black fruit flavors common to CA syrahs. Pleasant enough to drink, but not at all what I expected.

Always one of my favorites. Robust, warm and great finish down the back side. Killer wine!

Hint of allspice in the nose. Tasted young. May benefit from age.
