Yep … still beast line, but a beast in the autumn of urs years that has started to mellow. Its roar has been softened and it’s drinking really well. Vanilla and berries with a length that just keeps going. Wonderful! — 3 months ago
Excellent Cali Syrah with good dark red fruits earth and fall leaves with firm yet almost sweet palate and texture and long finish. Great pairing with Wilson’s pork butt goulash. — 5 years ago
Second time I’ve have this wine in 3 weeks, got to keep better records. For some reason this bottle tasted a bit better but still needed to be drunk. Very enjoyable meal at Little Hen. — 7 years ago
First thought was if the color "purple " had a flavor this would be it. Got a bit more complex as we went further. Some delicate mineral type notes. Label says 13.6 alc and at first I LOVED the balance but the alc crept up later so now I wonder if a little BS on the alc . I like this wine and I'll also say its the first syr I've dug in a looooong time and makes me want to hv another. This is one of my last btls from the first bottling run at Roar in 2014. — 7 years ago

Not as intense as the Roar but very good. Some cola, dark fruits and more. — 2 years ago

Bright & beautiful. Perhaps enjoying it a bit young but very much enjoying. Light garnet in color. Fresh berries on the nose. Fresh strawberry & cherry, gently herbal, white pepper, soft vanilla finish. — 3 years ago
Cigar box, tart fruit, pepper, and leather with a mineral backbone. Not quite the heft of premier Black Jack vintages and with a little drop off at the end of the palate, but chewy tannins and tingly acid roar back in the finish. — 7 years ago
