  Found some dusty bottles of this hidden in the back of our local liquor store. I'm pleased to report that this 2007 Tamarack blend is still drinking quite well. Still showing quite a bit of fruit, predominantly black and red berries.
  
  Despite the fact that this wine is blended from several grapes, the Syrah really shines through and provides a touch of earthiness, which prevents it from being a fruit bomb. A great WA blend for < $20. Buy more.

  Blackberry, and plum...chewy with a spicy finish. Paired nice with bacon wrapped filet, with horseradish sauce. Aged nicely...though it is fairly close to end of it's shelve life. Very nice wine.

  Drank right out of the bottle. This is a big wine with a heavy fruit taste and a spicy bite. Finish indicates that the 2007 might be nearing the end of it's life.

  Medium to dark maroon color. Blackberries, cherries, baking spice, dried herbs, raspberry, plum, licorice, vanilla, dark chocolate, and a bit of black pepper on the very open and inviting nose. Medium body with soft, ripe, tannins and decent acidity. Ripe and flavorful on the palate where the fruit shines. A bit soft but very tasty. The finish is a touch short and lacks a bit of zip, probably because of the low acidity. Very tasty, but not one to keep in the cellar, drink over the next year or two.
