Syrah Carneros

Syrah Carneros Wine Details
Price: $28.00 per bottle

Description: For me, the 2003 Syrah is a dense and delicious swath of brambly dark fruit, wild fennel, sage and what the French like to call sous bois, or underbrush. Curiously, all this foreshadowing gives way to a surprisingly fresh wave of red currants, raspberry and elegant plum fruit wedded to satin smooth tannins. A lip-smacking Syrah, enjoy it now in its riotous youth, or let it mellow gracefully, in your cellar over the next five to 10 years. A scant number of cases were estate grown, produced and bottled for your enjoyment.
