 Tasted by ramclain on 6/27/2018 & rated 88 points: Well aged at this point. Smooth at the start, with more notes of fruit and oak after opening up for about 30 minutes. Quite a decent wine. (351 views)
 Tasted by ramclain on 4/24/2018 & rated 88 points: Nicely aged wine at this point. Drinks well, with a smooth start and finish. Hard to pinpoint specific flavors at this stage, just a great drinking wine! (344 views)
 Tasted by AndreikL on 12/25/2015 & rated 75 points: Not my style (830 views)
 Tasted by say66what on 10/14/2015 & rated 90 points: I tasted alongside another Central Coast Syrah and both very easy to drink and fruit-driven. However this has more complexity, more years can be laid down, plummy and black pepper flavors. Just so nice. (780 views)

Syrah

Varietal article (Wikipedia) | (Wines Northwest)

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.

USA

American 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.

California

2021 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
