Community Tasting Note

  December 25, 2011 - Chistmas dinner w/family [accompanied by an `04 Rosenblum Monte Rosso Vyd]. Self-described as "dark, inky, & concentrated." Actually shown to be quite traditional in style. Plenty of acidity through the midpalate & tannins on the back. Somewhat non-descript for a CA Syrah; No game meat notes & the only spiciness detected seemed to come from its oak, not its fruit. Undoubtedly well-made, but questionable QPR. [15.9% abv.; $39.00?].
