| Community Tasting Notes (average 89.4 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 7 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Doc90 on 12/13/2023 & rated 86 points: Supple, jammy, and full of glycerine. This doesn't seem to be transforming in any significant way, and will probably not benefit from further cellaring. (98 views) | | | Tasted by tautlinehitch on 1/2/2016 & rated 93 points: PnP, drunk with a beef-and-celery risotto and merguez sausage. On opening, nose was mostly cherry and garrigue, the fruit replaced by sage and thyme after a few hours. Palate has lively acid, mild tannins, currant and berry flavors in the mix. Beautifully integrated, definitely ready to drink, but no tearing hurry. Great stuff! (750 views) |

Note that some producers in the Northern Rhone distinguish between simply Syrah and "Serine", the latter described as ‘an ancient clone of Syrah, the berries of which are more oval-shaped and less deeply pigmented than Syrah’ by producer Tardieu-Laurent. USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Sonoma CountyMendocino CountyRussian River Valley Russian River Valley Winegrowers Association | Wikipedia |
