Jeb Dunnick, 95 Points
"The 2016 Syrah Rodgers Creek Vineyard has classic Rhône-inspired markers of savory cured meats, black pepper, lavender, and black plum. It displays richness without weight and has fine structure throughout. Drink 2022-2035."
Wine Advocate, 94+ Points
"The 2016 Syrah Rodger's Creek Vineyard incorporates 8% Viognier and was matured for two years in barrel. Medium ruby-purple in color, it has generous aromas of red and black cherries and blueberries with accents of milk chocolate, allspice and garrigue. The palate is full-bodied, fresh and chalky with a concentrated core of ripe fruit and a long, spicy finish."
Wine Enthusiast, 93 Points
"This iconoclastic wine will excite fans of cool-climate Syrah. Earthy, peaty aromas and meaty, smoky flavors give a dramatic edge to this medium-bodied and moderately tannic wine. Fruits are quite subdued as black pepper and grilled herb flavors dominate."
Alcohol: 14.5%
