Community Tasting Notes 5

  January 5, 2011 - Worry not - this 2003 is still in great shape. Tannins are still grippy; fruit is still huge and several years left to go on this one. Berries and slight amounts of pepper on the nose and even though I never thought I'd say this (because I have never understood how anyone could detect this in a wine), pencil lead/graphite on the finish. I snagged on Winebid.com for $10 and at that price, I would buy this all day long and twice on Sunday. In fact, I will go in for more if it's available (just don't bid against me please). :-)

  October 4, 2006 - Surprisingly a great SRH Syrah. Don't let the simple label fool you into underestimating this sucker like I did. Got it on special for 8 bucks, so it was a great find.
