Also brilliant, the 2007 Syrah Denner Vineyard offers abundant aromas of creme de cassis, blackberries, white chocolate, and graphite. It is a deep, full-bodied, impressively endowed effort to consume over the next 7-8 years. Sadly, I did not see a 2008 Viognier from Denner as I was fond of previous vintages of this cuvee, particularly the 2007. If you can still find any, some Denner wines I was blown away by last year include the 2007 Grenache and 2007 The Ditch Digger Proprietary Blend (37% Grenache, 29% Syrah, 26% Mourvedre, 5% Counoise, and 3% Cinsault).
