The 2009 Syrah caresses the palate with layers of dark red fruit, sweet herbs, licorice and flowers. It shows gorgeous silkiness and plenty of polish through to the compelling finish. This is an especially round, powerful vintage for the Syrah. Some of wilder varietal notes that are at times present are in the background in the 2009. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. These are two engaging wines from Carol Meredith. The wines are loaded with personality and Mt. Veeder character.Tel. (707) 253-0653
