| Community Tasting Notes (average 95.5 pts. and median of 95 pts. in 4 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Sir JMusic on 2/14/2011: This wine drank beautifully tonight with NY strip steak. The longer it sat in the glass, the better. All the flavors were beautifully integrated. (2236 views) | | | Tasted by Jack on 2/6/2009 & rated 96 points: Wow! This is why I love to age wine. It has aged beautifully and is in the perfect spot to drink now. It was good when young but has that little extra now. The finish is extremely smooth and goes on forever. A little left for day 2 and another wow. This is a wonderful wine. Much better than the 95.

CHOCOLATE, LICORICE, AND A TOUCH OF EARTHINESS IN THE NOSE WITH BLACK CHERRIES, LICORICE AND EARTHINESS IN THE FLAVOR. NICE COMPLEXITY AND A MEDIUM TO LONG FINISH. (713 views) |

Note that some producers in the Northern Rhone distinguish between simply Syrah and "Serine", the latter described as ‘an ancient clone of Syrah, the berries of which are more oval-shaped and less deeply pigmented than Syrah’ by producer Tardieu-Laurent. USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Sonoma CountyMendocino CountyRussian River Valley Russian River Valley Winegrowers Association | Wikipedia |
