Terra Blanca Red Mountain Syrah 2002

This wine was very interesting. Just old enough that it was beginning to undergo some of the changes red wines do, but still having some of the youthful freshness. The color was a pale purple, obviously lightened up by some age. The wine was an incredibly interesting mix of blackberry, cedar, tobacco, and vanilla. The tannins were still present, but nicely integrated into the wine. A very fine offering from Terra Blanca.
