點擊次數：3713

The 2005 Wild Eyed Syrah was co-fermented with 5% Viognier. It was sourced from three vineyards and aged in 70% new French oak. Purple-colored, it has an enticing perfume of smoky blueberries with hints of grilled meat and sausage. This leads to a full-bodied, opulent wine with lots of spicy blueberry fruit but not much complexity. Perhaps that will emerge with additional bottle age because there is enough structure for several years of evolution. Tel. (206) 010-7967; www.markryanwinery.com

Red Mountain fruit from three different sites is used to create this delicious Syrah, laced with powerful flavors of coffee liqueur and chocolate. Cofermented with a dash of Viognier, it’s satiny and citrusy, speckled with pepper, and maintains an elegant precision for a wine that offers such richness.——P.G.(3/1/2008)—— 92
