Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 31, 2010 - Tasted at the release party today, it was actually a vertical tasting from the 2005 to 2008 Syrahs. Nice nose, very much like a nice bouquet of wildflowers, nothing overpowering. The syrah hits and then tingles the sweet sensors on the tongue, like dark chocolate, then melts in with a rhubarb cobbler’ish flavor, but ends on decidedly dark cherry/fleshy fruit note and a smooth non-acid/tacky finish. It resembled the 2006 syrah as far the smoothness potential given time in the bottle to age. Absolutely drinkable now, bottles were pop and poured and I’m sure given more air (decanted) more fruit and coco notes would be present.
