"By no means a lightweight, but one that does not flaunt ripeness and fruity mass quite as obviously as many of its varietal cousins and a very well-made example that is deep, nicely focused and fairly refined at one and the same time, Amphora’s medium-full bodied entry into the Syrah sweepstakes earns applause for its accuracy and its balance and second round yet for its altogether remarkable value. It has the structure to age without being so tough or tight as to dissuade near-term drinking if one were so to choose, but a little more time on the cork will serve it well, and it can be counted on to deliver real satisfaction for another half-dozen or more years." 91 Points
