點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：2801

The dark ruby/purple-tinged 2008 Syrah Originals (the name refers to the fact that these are the oldest vines planted in the estate's limestone-dominated Ballard Canyon vineyard) exhibits beautiful blueberry, black cherry, and black currant fruit intertwined with a hint of spring flowers. The wine cuts a broad swath across the palate with outstanding purity, a hint of spice from wood aging, a full-bodied, elegant, fresh style, and a long finish. Although some tannins are noticeable, the wine is accessible, and should evolve effortlessly for 8-10 years. Tel. (805) 688-0400

A rich, extracted Syrah that treads the line between simple lusciousness and complex authority. It’s softly tannic and low in acidity, with pie filling flavors of cherries, raspberries and mocha. Earns extra points for sheer richness. Drink now. ——S.H.(3/1/2011)—— 90
