Outstanding wine. Deep, almost opaque purple color. Explosive, multi-dimensional, exquisite nose and flavors of violets, dark red berry fruit, and crushed black pepper. Rich feel in the mouth, good finish. Still tannin to shed, and the kind of fruit level and balance that can wait it out. Syrah is a Dehlinger specialty, but we're beginning to think that everything is. - HK 2000-07-17
