2008 No Girls SyrahWalla Walla Valley more |
2/18/2015 - curtispomeroy Does not like this wine: 85 pointsI didn't particularly care for this wine. Found it to be rather atypical for syrahs from this producer/region and, worst of all, it wasn't very interesting or pleasurable to drink. Tried the last glass two days later and it hadn't improved for me. |

9/21/2014 - curtispomeroy wrote: NRFirst bottle from the case I bought 7 years ago. Decanted for about 2 hours and then refilled bottle to take to restaurant where we didn't drink it until about 4 hours after the cork was pulled. Still seemed pretty tight to me with not much being given up on the nose or palate. Will wait another year before opening bottle 2. |

5/21/2014 - curtispomeroy Likes this wine: 91 pointsThis was our first half-bottle from the case and it is ready to go. Wife commented at least half a dozen times: "This wine is good." She typically does not comment much on our wines so this is high praise. More delicious than complex. |

3/8/2014 - curtispomeroy Does not like this wine: NRI don't know what this wine was supposed to taste like but I do know that I don't like it. Supposedly this is a blend of syrah, merlot and viognier but I get very little on the nose and then not more than a whole mouthful of acidity. No sign of any tannin. Tried again on day two and the experience was the same so down the drain it went. |

2/26/2014 - curtispomeroy wrote: NRI poured this on Saturday for a blind tasting party at our house. It is no understatement that this wine very much underwhelmed the crowd. It was giving up some aromatics but very little fruit on the palate even tough it had been decanted for several hours. I corked the remains and put it in the frig until Tuesday night. Finally the fruit emerged and it was very enjoyable to drink. Suffice to say I am not going open the next bottle for several years. |

12/8/2013 - curtispomeroy Likes this wine: 92 pointsA wonderful WA state Bordeaux-style blend. I found myself continually topping up my glass so that it wouldn't be empty. Not sure it will get any better with time so drink up and enjoy. |
