"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 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"

"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."
