2014 Tensley BMT Syrah

95 pts - Wine Advocate

["There will be 150 six-bottle (magnum) cases of the 2014 Syrah BMT, and like the 2013, it incorporates a splash of Grenache. Upfront, sweetly fruited and about as sexy as Syrah gets, it offers full-flavored notes of cassis and black raspberry fruit, graphite, crushed flowers and violets to go with a massive, sweetly fruited, yet still focused and pure profile on the palate. Like all of Joey's 2014s, this takes concentration and ripeness to the extreme, yet holds everything together beautifully and is a joy to drink. - Jeb Dunnuck (28-08-2015)"]

93 pts - Wine Spectator

["Deeply structured and playing mostly bass notes, this Syrah offers dark berry and crushed rock aromas and plump but dense blueberry, herbes de Provence and licorice flavors. Drink now through 2028. 170 cases made. — TF (03/2017)"]
