eric carucci taps a very cool-climate, biodynamic vineyard originally planted by syrah legend bob lindquist to deliver this tightly wound, age-worthy wine, full of black pepper, tar, violet and dense black currants on the nose. the tart black-plum skins, boysenberry and purple flower notes on the sip need time to develop as do the squeaky tannins, but tons of potential greatness awaits. drink 2019–2029.
