Vinous 91+
The 2017 Syrah Eddie’s Patch possesses notable depth and textural intensity, but it is also raw and not fully put together. I won’t be surprised if it is much more expressive in bottle.
Robert Parker 94
The 2017 Syrah Eddie’s Patch was aged 16 months in 40% new Ermitage and Atelier hogsheads. It’s deep ruby-purple colored and scented of coffee bean, lilac, smoked meats, graphite, garrigue and peppery touches on the nose, with impenetrable ripe black cherry and currant fruit at the core plus red berry sparks, soil and fried sage notes. It’s full-bodied with gobs of savory-laced, ripe black fruits in the mouth framed by very ripe, pixelated tannins and great freshness, finishing very long and layered. 320 cases produced.
Anticipated maturity: 2021-2036
