Wine Spectator 92 points: " Broad and ripe, but not overwhelming, with a deft balance that allows the spicy blackberry and plum flavors to emerge against grainy tannins, lingering effortlessly on the finish. Syrah. Best from 2008 through 2014. 349 cases made." -HS
The nose is earthy, ripe and sweet with scents of dried wild grass, violet, and white chocolate. Flavors of cherry, caramel and chocolate mingle on the palate. This wine has a huge mouthfeel, an attribute that has been consistent across vintages. The long finish is fruity, juicy, and covered with fatty tannins.
