Score 91/100 · Drink 2022-2031, Anthony Mueller, Wine Advocate, Dec 2022
Beginning with a red-fruited core with dusty floral aromas, the 2019 Syrah offers notes of red and black spice in the glass. Medium to full-bodied, the wine envelops the palate with fresh and succulent tannins before showing impressive focus across the mid-palate. The Syrah concludes with a fine, firm and delightful mineral tension on the finish that fades with a food-friendly, tannic grip.
