Wine Critic Reviews

Wine Enthusiast (95): Lovely aromas of brisk raspberry meet with rosemary and rainbow peppercorns on the engaging nose of this bottling of dry-farmed old vines. The palate is loaded with herbs, from peppercorn to sage to bay leaf, giving tremendous depth to the lively black raspberry core. A very zesty Syrah.
