"The 2020 Syrah Les Titons is ripe and more brooding, with savory tones of olive, blackberry, plum, and ripe earth. Full-bodied and pure, it has a fantastic, gripping structure and is more grounded but weightless. Drink 2025-2040."

"The 2020 Estate Syrah Les Titans has a medium ruby-purple color and gregarious aromas of cassis, menthol and bitter chocolate plus wafts of blueberry. The full-bodied palate has a dense core of fruit with a light, charry woodsmoke-like character, slightly chewy tannins and a gently rustic finish. It's more savory than usual and may have been impacted by the challenges of the vintage. Drink it over the next 2-3 years."

"The 2020 Les Titans is laced Wirth silky, inky blue/purplish fruit and rosemary. In most vintages, the Titans is marked by strong savory, peppery qualities, but in the 2020, the style is more forward and fruit-driven. That, along with relatively tamed tannins makes me think the 2020 will drink well pretty much upon release"

"Lifted aromas of concentrated raspberry, violet and anise dominate the nose of this silky textured cool climate Syrah. The palate brings concentrated flavors of blackberry coulis, floral mélange, orange peel and black pepper with seamless tannin-acid integration and a lively, energetic finish that goes on for ages. — Tom R.

"The 2021 Estate Syrah Les Titans is youthfully coiled and takes plenty of time to unwind in the glass. After several minutes, it reveals scents of blueberry jam, cassis, grilled meats, dried herbs and lavender. The full-bodied palate has concentrated, floral flavors, clay-textured tannins, a bright spine of acidity and a long, detailed and spicy finish. It has the structure and concentration to age very well in bottle."
