2006 Spring Mountain Syrah & Shiraz (Other than French) "Estate"![]() Winery: Spring Mountain Vintage: 2006 Wine Name/Vineyard: "Estate" Wine Category: Syrah & Shiraz (Other than French) Grape blend: 100% Syrah Region: Spring Mountain State or country: CA Price: $55 Cases produced: 270 KWG Score: 91 (based on 1 review) Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good+ (91) Review date: October 3, 2009 Wine Review: This very dark opaque purple Syrah opens with a blueberry bouquet with hints of vanilla. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, extremely well balanced, smooth, and silky. The flavor profile is a ripe and extracted blackberry with hints of black licorice. The finish is dry and its fine tannins are slightly prolonged. This wine would pair well with venison or bison. Enjoy – Ken Winemaker Notes: Toasty smoke and black pepper, along with cherry and berry aromas, dominate an expressive nose. On the palate the attack is soft and full, with notes of mocha and baking spices surrounding bright cherry and raspberry fruit. The long finish is rich and layered. Drink 2010 – 2016.
