RoxyAnn Estate Syrah 08

2005 Vintage Tasting Notes

Wine & Spirits 92 points - All pepper and plums when first poured, this wine has the seductive rich texture of a plump Crozes-Hermitage, with blackberry flavors giving way to a deep. smoky length. Its meaty succulence would match grilled lamb chops.

"...produced from the estate grown grapes at RoxyAnn the 2005 Syrah displays a deep and vibrant purple color with generous aromas of perfumed spice and loads of ripe blueberry and blackberry flavors. Dark and juicy, this wine is polished and smooth with mild tannins behind a chewy mouthful of concentrated blackberry, cherry and white pepper accented with lavender blossoms and a gentle touch of spicy oak on the long, lingering finish." the winery
