Rosenblum Cellars Rominger Vineyard Yolo County Syrah – 2006 – 9.0 - James Meléndez / Jaime Patricio Meléndez

 

I think American Syrah’s when compared with it’s brethren in Australia stand out and are well done;  Australian Shiraz get a lot of attention and in some ways have a monopoly on this grape.  But there are more Shiraz or Syrahs in this country and in particular California are very well done.  This wine has bright and bold acids; coupled with baked plum, bramble, flint and Eucalyptus.

¡Salud!
