The dark ruby/purple-hued 2005 Syrah Bassetti Vineyard exhibits a superficial freshness of red currant and blackberry fruit, but is one-dimensional and superfluous in the mouth. Although well-made, it is a medium weight, innocuous effort, an adjective I would never have applied to an Edmunds St. John wine made in the early and mid-1990s.Tel. (510) 981-1510; Fax (510) 981-1610
