A perfect example of Russ From’s style, a powerful rendition of Syrah. Do not be out off by the abv - this is silky smooth and does not cone accross as hot by any means. — 6 months ago

One of the best GS blends tasted from 2020 so far; also one of the best wines I’ve tasted from this winemaker. Drink or hold — 2 years ago

Having the 17 at Daou Mountain. Delicious! Grippy tannins from the Petit Verdot. Beautiful layers of fruit from the Syrah and cab with a long finish. — 6 years ago

Pleasantly surprised with this, as Stoplman wines have been on my shit-list for a New York minute. Unflattering pepper and vegetal nose, transitions into a very presentable olive and leather-laced experience. Nice dark fruit profile cherries and blueberries. Finished sweet and sensual - Fulton St, NYC. — 7 years ago

Wow. This was an absolutely stunning btl of Syrah. On the nose: violets, olive brine, bacon, soft vanilla cream, blackberry, dried blackberry, soft leather...amazing complexity. On the palate: fantastic acidity and density, pure syrah fruit, and very soft tannin on the finish. — 5 years ago

Inspired by the golden hills that frame the landscape of San Bernabe Vineyard at the southern edge of the Santa Lucia Mountain range. Deep color with berry fruit aromas and notes of toasty honey scents. On the palate blueberry and cherry flavors with vanilla, cacao and toasty notes. Smooth tannins balanced well with acidity, lingering ending with espresso and spice character. Nice value. — 7 years ago

Fruit juicy goodness. Dark, inky purple and nice acid/black fruit balance. Blackberry, goose berry, boysenberry...plenty of fruit but lively in the mouth and remarkably light on its feet. Round, soft tannins escort the wine on its finish. I used to recommend Cabernet to accompany that crusty, juicy medium rare filet... but this makes a brilliant case for carignan from a good producer and old vines. — 5 years ago
