#kosherWineSunday

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Fruity nose with red and black fruits, light barnyard, vegetables, herbs, earth, dark chocolates, black pepper and light vinaigrette.

Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with plums, black currants, coffee, licorice, light oak, chocolates, earth, peppercorn, black tea, herbs and light vegetables.

Spicy finish with soft tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a very tasty Syrah - Tannat blend from Paso Robles. Smooth and elegant, soft and fruit forward.

This 9 year old Single Vineyard Syrah blend, is good right out of the bottle, but better after 90 minutes in the decanter.

I had this vintage 5 years ago, and it is still drinking very nicely. Will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.

Spicy and good by itself or with food.

A blend of 60% Syrah and 40% Tannat. Aged for 18 months in (20% new) French Oak barrels. Kosher and not Mevushal.

14.4% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

$60.

A beautiful color of dark purple with a wide purplish rim.

Pretty nose of blackberries, sweet plums, blueberries, violets, black currants, cedar, earth, vanilla, licorice, spices, tobacco, dark chocolates, bitter herbs, vegetables, and pencil lead. Very nice nose.

Full bodied and smooth with medium plus acidity and long legs.

Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, oak, spices, earth, vegetables, graphites, dark coffee, chocolates, tobacco, beef jerky and black pepper.

Long finish with fine tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a great Syrah blend from Paso Robles. Easy drinking and tasty with a nice mouthfeel. Showing nice complexity with a gorgeous nose.

Good right out of the bottle and better as it opens up (needs an hour). Drinking very nicely now, and will be better in the next 3 years.

I paired it with cheeses, nuts and dried fruits.
