American Syrah (Waterford Wines Milwaukee): much brighter in it's fruit expression on the nose than the Ojai 05 Roll Ranch. Chocolate paint!!! but i'm feeling it. black cherry and hints of straw on the nose. raspberry shows on the palate. a hint brighter in it's acid than the Ojai. Nice structure, but not quite the lingering finish of the Ojai.

Black raspbery, menthol and this lighter styled palate that makes it so damn easy to drink. Gosh this is really good. Seriously, at $31 this really works.
2 hours in: raspberry and coffecake and just delicious. Lifting acidty and totally smoothed out tannins as well.

Wine 9 of 10 presented by Scott Woodward of Appellation Wine Co. Big, dusty dark fruits on the nose. Especially blueberries. Interesting mouth of earthy dark berries, particularly blueberries again. Hints of cherry. Chocolate hints. A rich, rich wine, but with really nice acid to balance it.
