Wellington 2008 Englandcrest Syrah (Sonoma Valley)

Country: US / Englandcrest
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Wellington / Sonoma Valley

Impenetrably black in color, this Syrah feels bone dry and tannic. It has all of the hallmarks of an ageable wine, but the concentration of blackberry and currant flavors is unlikely to outlast the tannins. Drink this over the next few years.
