97 points James Suckling: "Gorgeous aromas of smoked meat, berries, and dried flowers. Cameroon black pepper. Very Cote Rotie. Full and velvety with lovely tannins and a chocolate, caramel and fruit character. This has an amazing finish. It goes on for mintues. Phenomenal. Magnificent. (6/12/16)"
95 points Robert Parker: "Again, the deep blue/purple-colored 2008 Syrah Eisele Vineyard appears to have more to it. The bouquet offers hints of roasted meats, flowers, crushed rocks and blueberries, and the evolved, approachable wine reveals sweet tannins. It is the product of a tiny crop that appears to have given it an extra measure of density. It should drink well for a decade or more. (12/22/10)"
95 points Jeff Leve (The Wine Cellar Insider): "This exciting wine pops from the glass with a strong perfume filled with spicy berries, jammy black cherry, pepper, earth and kirsch. Full bodied with silky textures, this sweet, spicy, ripe, intense wine is a great expression of California Syrah. (Mar 2011)"
