Reviews & Scores
Aromas of damp leaves, cured meat and cigar box spice. Thanks to 25% whole-cluster fermentation, the palate is buoyant and fresh, with intense pepper and spice flavours. After a few hours, rose petal and potpourri notes emerge, while lively tannins round out the finish. A beautiful Syrah.

An extreme version of cool-climate Syrah, this bottling begins with peppercorn, bay leaf, asphalt, green olive and eucalyptus on the nose as well as a pleasant black-raspberry-fruit element. It's very lively on the palate, where the green-peppercorn and Kalamata olive flavors meet with gamy meats and tart black plum. *Editors' Choice*

Lastly, the 2018 Syrah Presqui'le Vineyard comes from a site in the Santa Maria not far from the Solomon Hills Vineyard. Mostly destemmed (80%) and brought up in 10% new French oak, it offers a beautiful perfume of black raspberries, orange zest, ground pepper, and wildflowers. Polished, medium to full-bodied, and silky on the palate, it still has bright acidity, plenty of ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's another character-filled, singular wine in this great lineup.
JD93August 2020
In the glass, the Syrah is resonant and layered, with strong peppery accents that lend intrigue. Lavender, chocolate, licorice, cloves and new leather lend notable complexity. Syrah really does seem to express all the signatures of this site so well.
