Fairly deep in color; obvious charred oak aroma with a good hit of grapey, ripe fruit notes, very good depth of fruit; medium bodied, nicely textured, layered; oaky; toasty flavors, perhaps a bit too much on the barrel side; long finish, softish tannins, good aftertaste.

2001 Syrah
View Label
Appellation: Paso Robles
Austin Hope Winery
(Paso Robles, CA)
--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Austin Hope
Austin Hope Winery's flagship wine is the Austin Hope Syrah which is grown and made on the estate property. It is very similar to Northern Rhône wines, with its intense blackberry and blueberry note which marry well with the subtle flavors of smoked meat. The mouth is very lush, yet still maintains a strong backbone. The tannins are full and elegant and carry throughout the length of this wine. This wine is truly enjoyable in its youth and over time will continue to develop nicely.

Peirano Estate Vineyards
(Acampo, CA)

(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Lance Randolph
The aromas penetrate your sense, with black fruits, chocolate, licorice and smoky tones. The mouth fills with a mix of cherries, dark plums, cocoa and toasty smoke, while the tannins round out the palate without intruding. This Shiraz is great with all kinds of grilled fare, or enjoy it after dinner with a double chocolate brownie and a nice cigar.

Astrale e Terra

(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Scott Harvey
The first thing you notice about the 2004 Syrah from our estate vineyard on Atlas Peak is its extraordinary deep purple hue, followed by vibrant aromas of raspberry, vanilla, lavender and toasty oak. Big flavors of bright cherry, black fruit and dried herbs fill the palate. Brilliantly complex and balanced, with elegant tannins that linger on the luxurious chocolate finish, this wine is a fantastic expression of Napa Valley Syrah!

2004 Paradise Road Syrah
Appellation: Santa Ynez Valley
Blair Fox Cellars
(Los Olivos, CA)
--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Blair Fox
This vineyard experiences a much warmer climate than most other Santa Barbara County vineyards and possesses iron rich, nutrient deprived soils. This results in Syrah with tiny berries, small clusters and very concentrated flavors. The grapes were 100% destemmed and lightly crushed, leaving approximately 60% whole berries, into a 5-ton open top fermentor and cold-soaked for six days prior to inoculation. After the cold soak, the grapes were punched down by hand three to four times per day unt...

Acclaim: Robert Parker “the 2004 Paradise Rd Syrah reveals aromas of melted chocolate,espresso roast,creme de cassis,& blackberries.Full-bodied & voluptuously textured, it is the biggest, fattest, & most alcoholic of this group. Thick & juicy with an unctuous texture, it is impeccably well-made.”(90pts)

2004 Syrah
View Label
Appellation: Sierra Foothills
Il Gioiello Winery / Morse Wines
(Fiddletown, CA)
--
(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: David Fenech
The wine has a dense, deep ruby color. The experience begins with warm aromas of leather and cedar. The flavors are bold and earthy, indicative of Sierra Foothill Syrahs. Time and patience will be rewarded with evolving depth, as the meaty, earthy and spicy flavors gain complexity and integrate with the black currant and cherry fruit. Rich finish ending with firm tannins and a smoky aftertaste. This wine can easily be aged until 2012.

Our Syrah was hand harvested, gently sorted and destemmed, patiently fermented, and then aged for 16 months in French oak barrels. This big wine has lush blackberry, white pepper, cassis, mocha, our signature wild herb aromas and flavors, and soft ripe tannins with a long lingering finish. Savor it over the next ten years with grilled and roasted meats or bold cheeses.

Epsilon is our specialty label at ampelos. Each year before bottling we taste through all of our barrels. When we find a wine that is truly unique we set it aside and bottle it under the epsilon label. A deep, dark garnet red color promises a big wine. The nose indicates spices and dark fruit as well as a little vanilla and cr®me brulee. The pallet is big: candy, rainier cherries, chocolate raspberry tart, a hint of cinnamon and violets while the oak flavors a...
