96+ points Anthony Mueller (Wine Advocate): "Instantly impressive in the glass, the 2021 Syrah High Contrast Vineyard presents dark, firm and savory notes that sway with elements of roasted espresso beans. It's bold, juicy and food friendly, with a medium body that grows in complexity across the palate, offering incredible depth and precision. The wine offers notes of spiced plum compote, black raspberry jus and meaty and savory flavors, leading to a long, lingering, ever-evolving finish. This Syrah is one to buy! You'll likely want to decant this beauty and let it rest for an hour before consuming it. The wine aged for 15 months in neutral demi-muids and foudre. Just over 5,000 bottles were produced. Drink: 2026-2041. (3/21/24)"
96 points James Suckling: "Grown in a vineyard where rocky soil alternates with ribbons of more fertile topsoil, the wine exudes hickory-smoked bacon, singed herb and pepper aromas before deep blackberry, beef jus and grilled plum flavors coat the palate. It’s moderately tannic, medium-bodied and long on the finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Best from 2028. (3/6/24)"
