Première expérience avec la syrah de Colgin et je suis bouche bée. C’est de la bombe. On a pris un verre vendredi soir sans remettre le bouchon. Le vin était encore délicieux samedi soir. C’est rempli de fruits noirs, c’est soyeux, riche. C’est epicé avec des notes de viandes fumées. J’aurais pu croire une cote-rotie, dans le style d’une Llala de Guigal.

Reticent at first but opens up to reveal blueberry, blackberry anise and an unmistakable violet note so typical of Syrah. One of Napa’s best syrahs.

Aromas of boysenberry, beef short rib drippings and smoldering embers erupt from the glass. The palate is full of lush dark mountain berries, a hint of wild game, pepper jam, and cut by an ending that is sweet apricots. Gorgeous Syrah
