Wine critic Lisa Perrotti-Brown says, "The 2020 Cohort is a blend of 65% Petite Sirah, 20% Mourvèdres, and 15% Syrah. Deep garnet-purple in color, it shoots from the glass with notes of stewed plums, blackberry preserves, and underbrush with hints of fallen leaves and dusty soil. The full-bodied palate is soft and juicy, with savory undertones and a lively lift to the finish." 95 pts

Wine Critic Owen Bargreen says, "Aged in mostly new French oak (70%), the 2020  Caliza Syrah offers black olives, blackberry jam, cigar ash and shades of citrus blossom on the palate. Neatly textured and dense, with a killer mouthfeel, enjoy this beauty now and over the next eight plus years. Drink 2023-2031." 94 pts
