2005 Barrel 27 Central Coast Syrah

SKU #1039394

From Wine Spectator: "Well-proportioned, ripe and juicy, with supple wild berry and blackberry fruit that's smooth and elegant, ending with a nice dash of spice and herb. Drink now through 2012. 5,000 cases made." (Web Only '08) Who said great wine has to cost a mint? This may be one of the best values in California syrah available today. From winemakers Russell From and Mac Meyers, this is a rich fruit-forward wine with all of the spicy, meaty notes you'd expect from something three-times the price.

Price: $14.99

Mark this down, I'm loving a California syrah! Yes it has lots of up front fruit but it isn't overripe. It has balance, freshness, richness and still gives that California richness in the mouth and all for an unbeliveable price.

This wine is all about what a wine priced less than $15 can show when made well and balanced. It starts with a deep rich purple color and gives ripe rasberry aromas with a background of violets and spice. The lush mouthfilling fruit stays in check with good acidity as well as a background of anise and pepper. The long finish is all pepper and rasberries. Rich and seductive and all for $14.99.
Top Value!

Had this a few times with friends, everyone fell in love with it. All you want from a CA Syrah, earth, fruit, acid, creaminess, weight. Maybe better alone than with a meal, but pairs well with cheese, and people...

Additional Information:

Varietal:

Shiraz/Syrah

- Syrah is the great red grape of the Northern Rhone, responsible for such fine wines as Hermitage and Cote Rotie. Big, dark and spicy, wines made from this varietal can age as well as Bordeaux. The varietal is gaining popularity in the United States as well as other countries. Since the 1970's, Syrah has spread throughout the Southern Rhone, and Provence regions of France, where it is being bottled as a single varietal wine or in blends. Syrah has also seen tremendous success in Australia where it is commonly called Shiraz (same grape, different name). Brought 'down-under' in the 1830's, Shiraz is widely planted through out Southeastern Australia. The wines range in style from fruity forward wines to big thick port like monsters. Shiraz is also frequently blended with Cabernet Sauvignon or Grenache. Here is a list of our bestselling Shiraz/Syrah
Country:

United States

- When people consider domestic wine, they normally think about the state of California. The fine viticultural Region within California, including the Napa Valley, Sonoma, Santa Cruz Mountains, Mendocino and Santa Barbara, are capable of growing grapes of world-class quality. But there's plenty of fabulous wine coming from other states, too. Oregon, Washington and New York are also causing eyebrows (and glassware) to be raised around the world.

Sub-Region:

California

- With the explosive growth that California's wine industry has seen the past several years, it's easy to view winemaking and grape growing in the Golden State as a recent phenomenon. And while it's true that California's viticultural history is brief compared to several European countries, this state's roots date back well over 200 years. Due to the enormous response to California wine within the United States and worldwide, there are thousands of excellent and diverse wines being produced within the state each year.
