The 2007 Syrah Coastview, made from a high elevation (2,600 feet) site overlooking Monterey Bay, exhibits a dense purple color as well as a tight but promising nose of blackberries, spring flowers, crushed rocks, licorice and charcoal. Deep and full-bodied with stunning richness, a multilayered mouthfeel, and excellent length, this 2007 can be enjoyed over the next 10 years. I have consistently enjoyed these wines from Big Basin winery. They are big, beautifully balanced and impeccably well made efforts displaying lots of purity. Sadly, production varies from only 70 cases of the Frenchies, to 300+ cases of the Rattlesnake Rock. Tel. (831) 621-8028; Fax (831)-621-7925

There’s a vegetal note that drags on the otherwise rich blackberry, roasted meat and pepper flavors. It’s also quite soft, lacking some vibrancy. A sound, rustic wine for drinking now. ——S.H.(3/1/2011)—— 85
