A high class, limited cuvee, the 2000 Syrah (470 cases) boasts a dense ruby/purple color in addition to deep, chewy, black berry fruit intermixed with hints of white pepper, acacia flowers, and loamy, earthy notes. Dense and supple, with sweet tannin, it will provide delicious drinking. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

96 Points from Robert Parker! In very rare magnum format! "The 2000 In Flagrante (a 725-case blend of 86% Syrah, 10% Grenache, and 4% Viognier) is a world-class, provocative effort. It reveals many of the same aromatic and flavor components found in the 2001 Midnight Oil and 2002 Syrah-dominated, unnamed offering. A black color is followed by a seamless effort...

2001 Sine Qua Non Midnight Oil Syrah 1500ml
$649.99
Good red-ruby. Complex nose combines red cherry, raspberry, woodsmoke and cinnamon. Sweet, silky and dense, with enticing flavors of strawberry and exotic spices. Remarkably large-scaled and generous for the year, and long and ripe on the back end, with suave, fine tannins. Oaky, but the wood element is successfully integrated. This reminded me of a Dujac Burgundy.

The finest Grenache based wine I have tasted from California is Manfred Krankl’s 2000 Incognito, but his 2002 More Than A Number (80% Grenache and 20% Syrah) is nearly as good. The bulk of the grapes come from the Alban Vineyard along with significant quantities from Stolpman and Shadow Canyon vineyards. The wine spent 19 months in wood prior to...

Like the Madrona Ranch, the 2003 Thorevilos comes from the St. Helena AVA. Co-owned with Ric Forman, this is one of the true first-growth sites in all of California. The dense plum/ruby/purple color is followed by aromas of white acacia flowers, blueberry liqueur, creme de cassis and incense. The wine cuts a slightly deeper, richer, fuller-bodied mouthfeel than even the...

Absolutely superb, this 2003 is drinking beautifully. This blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot from the famous hillside Eisele Vineyard in northeast Napa Valley tips the scales at 14.5% natural alcohol. Gorgeously fresh black currant and black raspberry notes intermixed with spring flowers and forest floor jump from the glass from one of the...

98 Points Robert Parker! Very rare magnum format! "There are 860 cases of the 2003 Papa, a blend of 97% Syrah, 2% Mourvèdre, and 1% Grenache sourced from six different vineyards.

100 Points! (please note damaged wax capsule) The mind-boggling 2003 The Inaugural Syrah is an emotional experience to taste as well as drink.

This stunning Syrah boasts a magnificent...

Despite having over 40-plus acres of vineyards in the northeasterly sector of Napa just south of Calistoga, the production at Araujo remains relatively limited, with the flagship wine, the Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard, producing between 1,600 and 2,200 cases of wine, and the second wine, the Altagracia, between 800 and 1,200 cases. Add to that another 1,000 cases of Sauvignon...
