Sterling Vintner's Collection Syrah 2007 - $9



David: Dark red tending toward purple. Nose of black currant and black cherry. Full bodied and rich. The spice and tannins come on early and strong and dominate over every other aspect. Some liquorish and blueberry as well. Not particularly well integrated or balanced. Improves a bit when opened a while; Vanilla becomes apparent on the nose and displays a bit more layering, and softness.
Score: 2.5/5
