James Suckling, 96 Points
"This is meaty, with ripe dark berries, plum skins, smoked bacon, cocoa and ground spiced and pepper. Medium- to full-bodied with firm, chalky tannins and a polished texture, with crushed-stone minerality and dried orange peel. Lengthy and persistent, with a savory finish. From biodynamically grown grapes."
Vinous, 95+ Points
"A mentholated freshness lifts savory woodland herbs and dried black cherries as the 2020 Syrah En Cerise Vineyard opens in the glass. Juicy and vividly fruit-focused, this cascades across the palate with a crystalline blend of wild berries and spice, gaining a more savory edge toward the close. The 2020 tapers off crunchy, leaving gritty tannins and a bump of residual acidity that adds freshness. The En Cerise will be an exciting wine to follow, showing an aging potential not seen in many 2020s."
