The virtually perfect 2003 Syrah Piggott Range is displaying far more character, depth, and potential out of bottle than it did from barrel. The most backward, tannic, and muscular of the 2003 Syrahs, it possesses an inky/blue/black/purple color, incredibly full body, monster tannins, huge concentration, and a striking minerality with all the blackberry, blueberry, and peppery characteristics one expects in a top-notch Syrah. It demands 5-6 years of cellaring, and should keep for 20-25 years. A brilliant Syrah! Importer: Commonwealth Wine & Spirits Inc., Mansfield, MA; tel. (508) 328-6764

Firm, explosive in flavor, with a big burst of tangy blackberry, plum and licorice flavor wrapped in a tight package, with spicy, dusky oak showing, all persisting impressively on a racy finish. Needs time to settle in. Best after 2008. 600 cases made, 100 cases imported.??–HS??Region: Australia / Clarendon Select to Add

Thick and textured—almost wooly—on the palate. A sip brings big blackberry and smoke on the front palate, which tightens up to blueberry by the finish. The nose is very pretty, too, showing bread flour, blueberry, fresh herb and even some lavender. Imported by Commonwealth Wine & Spirits Inc. ——D.T.(8/1/2005)—— 92
