2006 Tor Rock Kenward Family Napa Syrah Hommage Allan Judge Family Vineyard - USA, California, Sonoma County, Bennett Valley (6/10/2009)
Purchased from Winebid. Pop and pour
Color: Beautiful deep purple, almost ink like with a pinkish glow at rim.
Nose: Wasn’t shy at all. As soon as the cork was popped, the aroma of blackberry, plum, and other dark fruits filled the air.
Taste: Big taste of dark fruits and currants but not a fruit bomb, great depth and balance. Supposed to be 14.7% alcohol but I could not detect it. Nice structure and rich mouth feel.
Overall, it went very well with the carne asada that we were having for dinner. Certainly one of the better syrah I had this year, comparable to Jaffurs’ Verna’s. (92 pts.)
