Varietal: Syrah
Vintage: 2005
Region: France
Price: ~ $13 Black cherries and a hint of spice make the bouquet of this richly burgundy French syrah. Unlike many syrah's with their forward spice this has a subtle spice wrapped in rich black cherries. Very simple and uncomplicated with a medium to light body and a quick finish. Maybe it's just me, but I found there was a slight metallic tinge. And keep in mind there is no AOC designation. On the back it says that it's grapes are gathered from the Languedoc-Roussillon but there is no Languedoc-Roussillon appellation. I wouldn't say it's a memorable wine but it is an easy drink when you're watching House. Hey-oh! J
