Community Tasting Note

  • dsamuel Likes this wine: 93 points

    September 2, 2021 - Deep purple color with moderate rim clearing
    Medium plus aromas of blueberry and black fruit - cough syrup along with classic smoked meat and purple floral secondaries
    Medium plus body with palate of red/ blue fruit and bacon with green notes, presumably stem inclusion
    Medium acid and medium plus tannins primarily down the tongue with medium alcohol and really nice length
    Dry glass aromas of classic Syrah - blueberry, smoke and meat
    Really fine example of New World Syrah which could easily be mistaken for riper vintage Cote Rotie in my opinion - very classy
    Drink now or hold another 3-5 yrs
