From the great grand cru site of the James Berry Vineyard, the 2006 Syrah James Berry Vineyard is another small cuvee of less than 100 cases, but it displays superb definition, full-bodied power, and beautiful cassis and black cherry/blackberry notes with a liquid minerality infused into the fruit character of the wine. It is full-bodied and displays serious tannins, but they are sweet and silky. This wine should age beautifully for 15-20 years.
