 Winery: Agate Ridge Vintage: 2009 Wine Name/Vineyard: "Estate Vineyard" Wine Category: Syrah & Shiraz (Other than French) Grape blend: 100% Syrah Region: Rogue Valley State or country: OR Price: $24 Cases produced: 85 KWG Score: 88 (based on 2 reviews) Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good (88) Review date: September 8, 2012 Wine Review: This opaque and very dark purple colored Syrah opens a fragrant blueberry bouquet with a hint of old oak. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied and slightly acidic. The flavor profile is a tasty plum and red currant blend with a hint of black pepper. The finish is dry and its tingly acidity lingers for quite a while. This Syrah would pair well with braised pulled pork sliders. Enjoy – Ken Winemaker Notes: Our 2009 Syrah displays complex notes of dark ripe fruit, graphite, and lush spicy oak on the nose, followed by a rich, thick, decadent mouth feel. This wine is full bodied with a lengthy finish. We suggest enjoying this wine over the next four to six years with roast beef, venison or charcoal grilled steak.
