Perfect 100 points - limited Limited new release from cult producer Sine Qua Non. 100 Points Robert Parker: "Lastly, the utterly perfect 2012 Syrah Touche reminds me of a great vintage of Guigal’s Cote Rotie La Landonne. A blend of 93% Syrah, 5% Petite Sirah and 2% Viognier, all from the Eleven Confessions Vineyard in the Sta. Rita Hills, it spent 40 months in 78% new French oak. Deep, concentrated, full-bodied and layered, with a multidimensional texture and to-die-for notes of camphor, cured meats, violets, smoke and assorted dark fruits, this beauty has fine, perfectly ripe tannin and blockbuster length. Give it 3-4 years and drink over the following two decades."

A touch of violet with very intense blue fruit. Powerful. A bit of burn. Good purity. A bit too much for me

2012 Vintage. Consistent with prior notes but the fruit was a bit restrained and tannins more pronounced in this bottle. Still, a great wine to say we’ve survived 2020.

2012 Vintage. 15.6% Alcohol. Still needs more time or long decant.
