  Well aged, softened yet still lively. Fine spiciness and elegance.

  Peppery on the tongue. Disappears immediately after swallowing. Leaves slight tarry/oily sensation.

  RussK brought to the Berkshires. muted nose. Sleek. Light to medium bodied. Bright acidity. Great food wine. Aromatics not much qt play as mouthfeel. Kinda Pinot like. 90+.

  Okay but not real interesting on the no or the palette. Flavors were tame and a little bland in many respects with a definite tar component.

  This is a light/medium bodied wine made with 100% Syrah, with a fine nose of black cherry, blackberry and spices. The fruit develops slowly on the palate and the flavors increase the longer it sits in the glass. A pinch of pepper and some oaky notes add complexity. The tannins are soft, but it posses a good kick of acidity that makes it very food friendly (retail $14.99)
