Syrah Tasting
-Radio-Coteau, Syrah, Cherry Camp, Sonoma Coast, 2005 (soft and supple, feminine style with good purity and length)
-Failla, Syrah, Sonoma Coast, 2005 (a little more astringent, a little more flashy, but more people liked this bottling)
-IO, Syrah, Santa Barbara, 1999 (this wine was a little tired. It was elegant and nice, but lacked complexity and character)
-Booker, Vertigo, Syrah, Paso Robles, 2005 (flashy and tasty but a little superficial)
-Two Hands, Ares, Barossa, 2004 (mocha-vanilla-ripe fruit, chewy milkshake, and not in a great way. The wine was a bit over the top and really not much better than many Shiraz's on the market for 1/3 the price)
All the wines were good, but none were great.
