Terre Rouge 2006 High Slopes Syrah (Sierra Foothills)

Country: US / California
Variety: Syrah
Winery: Terre Rouge / High Slopes

Full-bodied, complex and delicious, with extraordinarily ripe flavors of blackberries, cherries, currants, chocolate, grilled meat, tamari, violets, sweet fresh herbs and black pepper. Quite dry and tannic now, with a youthful, primary fruit character that suggests ageability. Best 2010–2012.
