subtle (invisible?) syrah. tame nose with fruit, smoke and pepper, same on tongue, minerals too, with exceedingly short finish. tannic. was expecting good things from this after tasting the cab & merlot from the 04 craftsman flight, but was disappointed in the execution here. tasting blind, i would have called this a cheap cali merlot. (78)
b's notes: boring, not at all in line with pacNW syrah flavors. (70)
