點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：3169

The 2007 Syrah Three Creek Vineyard has a distinctive chalky minerality and lots of it. Dark ruby purple, with deep black currants and black cherry notes as well as some licorice and white chocolate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, impressively made, and should drink nicely for 7-8 years.

For sheer deliciousness, it’s hard to beat this Syrah. It shows intensely concentrated blackberry, cherry and liqueur flavors, with rich, smoky oak complexities, and the mouthfeel is pure velvet. For all the richness, the wine finishes dry and elegant. Compellingly good, and a worthy alternative to a great Napa Valley Cabernet.——S.H.(12/31/2010)—— 94
