2004 Pax Syrah Griffin's Lair (USA, California, Sonoma County, Sonoma Coast)



Dark garnet red color. Aromas of tar, black currants, chocolate, licorice, blood, pepper, and white flower blossoms. Lots going on. On the palate, the wine is a little more one-dimensional than it is aromatically, and the flavors present are black fruit, blackberry, cassis, tree bark, and autumnal notes mixed with a hint of vanilla. Creamy texture with good acidity. Blockbuster finish. One of the best California Syrahs I have had up to now. Spectacular.
