Bishop’s Peak 2004 Syrah (Edna Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Bishop’s Peak / Edna Valley

There’s a reason why Syrah is on a roll in America, and it’s wines like this that make the case. Soft and juicy, it’s a mellow, sensual wine, with a taffeta mouthfeel that carries rich flavors of cherry-pie filling, red licorice and vanilla oak that are delicious and worthy of a second glass.
