2007 Colgin Syrah IX Estate
Community Tasting Note
MC2 Wines Likes this wine:
Tuesday, March 8, 2022 - Return to Napa; 3/6/2022-3/13/2022 (Wineries and various restaurants): So it turns out that I am a Syrah person. In a week where we've been drinking a lot of cabernet my first taste of the syrah was a 'oh - yes - I really like this'. There's fruit and a hint of game and a certain juiciness. Needs a lot more time, but it is quite enjoyable.
