93 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Bright black cherries, peppery herbs, black tea, and wildflower notes, as well as some classic Rocks scorched earth, emerge from the 2020 Syrah En Cerise Vineyard, a medium to full-bodied, elegant Syrah with wonderful purity, fine-grained tannins, and outstanding length. It doesn't have the density or concentration of a truly great vintage here, but it shines for its elegance and finesse. It's going to evolve for 10-15 years. Drink 2023-2038 (Jun 2023)."
93 points Anthony Mueller (Wine Advocate): "Savory, smokey and dusty, the 2020 Syrah en Cerise is firm, mineral-driven and expressive with potpourri and dark red fruit aromas, hints of pink and green peppercorns and a spicy and mineral essence. Medium-bodied, the palate gives way to a balanced and spicy core of dark red fruit with savory flavors of sage and wild brush before offering notes of umami and dusty flowers across the mid-palate. The wine continues to open and evolve, revealing more spicy and savory notes before ending with a soft hint of iodine and leather. Enjoy with food. Drink 2023-2033 (May 2023)."
