Impresses for its dryness, big tannins and acids, and for the complexity of flavor. Offers delicious waves of blackberry tart and blueberry muffin, sprinkled with cocoa and cinnamon and a drizzle of cassis. Really a beautiful Syrah, classy and elegant. Drinks well now and through 2012. ——S.H.(10/1/2010)—— 92
