The 2005 Syrah EQ is a saturated purple. It gives off an expressive bouquet of smoke, meat, mineral, and blueberry. The wine is layered and rich with gobs of peppery blue and black fruits. It has outstanding length and enough structure to evolve for 4-5 years. Drink this tasty Syrah through 2022.Importer: Martin Scott Wines, Lake Success, NY; tel. (516) 327-0808

Bold and fleshy, with lots of dark toast and cocoa leading the way for layers of pure blackberry, fig and currant fruit. There's nice definition through the finish, with tar and mineral notes chiming in. Delivers a lot without being bombastic. Drink now through 2009. 1,340 cases made, 450 cases imported.??–JM??Region: Chile / San Antonio Select to Add
