Joey Tensley’s 2018s are fabulous. The wines were compelling from barrel last year and are every bit as magnificent in bottle. Readers will have an amazing time exploring the essence of site through this range. As always, the Syrahs are done with mostly neutral oak, with the exception of the OGT, BMT and Noir, which have some new oak influence. The Colson Canyon Syrah is the highlight, while the Sta. Rita Hills bottling is the under the radar gem. I would be thrilled to own any of the 2018s.
