Syrah, 2022, Estate Grown
Michael Kelly, California Wines & Wineries, October 2025
This was sent to me as an advanced [bottle] sample as it is not released today. This wine was aged in 30% new French oak and 70% in neutral oak for 18 months. It is 14.5% alcohol with 269 cases produced. It is made with 97% Syrah and 3% Grenache. It will not be released until 2027 and pricing is expected at $60/bottle. Can hardly wait to taste this aged wine in 2027.
This wine on the eyes was an inviting red brick color with medium viscosity. On the nose, soft and subdued fruit with violets waft into the senses, no slapping one in the face with dripping sweetness. Stoic and respectful best describes this wine on inspection. On the palate, the wine swirls with blackberry and black pepper. On the finish, minerality and freshly plowed earthen fields complement the fruit for a smooth and lasting sip.

There’s an oily viscousness to the texture, but never too much, with six months of French oak aging, 25% new, adding a cohesive roundedness.
