Wonderful nose of licorice, menthol, earth and blackberry. On the palate, it is dark and smokey with tannins creating a spherical structure around a core of notable, food friendly acidity. A pleasurable and interesting wine.

Typical Syrah smokey, spicy rubber nose. Good concentration with cool climate saltiness on palate, not my style. Prefer its Cab even though Truchard Syrah suppose to be Carneros iconic cool climate Syrah.

Smoke, berry nose. Balanced, less expressive of fruit, good.

Pretty dry. But nice. Less fruit than expected.
