There is one Rhone varietal wine in the collection. The 2006 Syrah Proprietor’s Reserve is 100% varietal aged for 20 months in 40% new French oak. It offers up a carnivore’s perfume of smoked meat, hung game, bacon, incense, and blueberry. Layered and dense on the palate, it has tons of succulent fruit, well concealed structure, impeccable balance, and a lengthy, fruit-filled finish. Enjoy this sexy, pleasure-bent effort over the next 8-10 years. Based on this superb and well-priced portfolio of wines, Maryhill Winery merits serious attention.Tel.
