92 points Wine Spectator: "Rich, focused and powerfully structured, with black cherry and mocha aromas complementing layered flavors of dark plum, mineral and licorice that linger toward firm tannins. Hands off for now. Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2019 through 2026. 1,200 cases made. (3/31/17)"

91 points and 'Very highly recommended,' California Grapevine: "Dark purplish ruby; forward, intense, dark cherry and blackberry fruit aroma with hints of mocha, smoked bacon, and black licorice; full body; big, deep, extracted, cedary, spicy, dark berry fruit flavors with overtones of toasty oak and a full, rich mouthfeel, though a bit rough on the finish; full tannin; lingering aftertaste. Best to age for three to five more years. 15.5% alcohol; 1,200 cases; blend of 60% Syrah, 34% Merlot, and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon; released August 2016. (Jun 2017)"

Producer notes: "Syrah 60%, Merlot 34% and Cabernet Sauvignon 6%. Asserting its independence through explosively ripe blackberry and huckleberry fruits, there's also kirsch-like cherry cola, spicy oak, supple tannin and a trace of s'mores that's closer to home. Tremendously youthful and seriously good fun, Alec's Blend remains a kid at heart. 1,200 cases produced. Alcohol 15.5%."
