The winemaker at Cline has done a masterful job of producing
this outstanding Syrah. The fruit comes from their 18 acre
hillside estate vineyard in Sonoma. The wine has a deep ruby
color and an aroma that jumps out of the glass and grabs
your nose. Plenty of ripe cherries and stewed plumbs
intermingle with savory meaty aromas. On the palate the
flavors follow the nose. But the real enjoyment is the mouth
feel of this wine. It nestles in and covers the palate like
a silky blanket. Powerful even ethereal, yet sensuous the
finish lingers with satisfaction. Fortunately Cline produced 3900 cases of this wonderful wine. |
