Sunday, March 6, 2011 - Napa Offline and a whole bunch of wine, mostly Syrah (Napa Valley Wine & Cigar): This was fully mature. The oak seems mostly resolved and what is there isn't going anywhere. Ruby in color, perhaps a bit dull. The nose is raspberries, black raspberries, slight floral note and spice. Layered, soft and complex on the palate. Dark cherries and smoke. Not a fruit bomb in any way. I really enjoyed it for its maturity.
