Easy drinking, with peach and vanilla flavors and a creamy texture. Finishes dry. A white Rhône blend of Viognier and Roussanne.

Holly's Hill Syrah - 2006

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Dark and ripe, with brawny aromas and flavors of blackberries, chocolate, coffee and leather. Dry, with good, rich tannins, but loses points because of a rough earthiness that makes it awkward and jagged in the mouth.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Quite full-bodied for a blush, and strong in fruity, spicy flavors. The tastes of strawberries, raspberries and cinnamonny pepper flood the mouth, perked up by good acids. Fully dry, it’s a great food wine, and a great value.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A little sharp in acids, and a bit rough around the edges. This country-style wine has good fruit and a little residual sweetness.

Holly's Hill Syrah - 2002

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Very lean and crisp, almost steely in the mouth. The fruit is thin, suggesting watered-down peach flavors. Yet there’s something likeable about the intense citrusy cleanliness, the crisp, earthy acidity, the way the wine washes across the palate and stimulates the taste buds.

Holly's Hill Mourvèdre - 2002

0 out of 0 people thought this note was helpful.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Lightish in color, it opens with earthy, tobacco aromas, a hint of mint and, if you really concentrate, blackberries. It’s very limpid in the mouth, light as a feather, but the fruit is great. The concentrated blackberry taste is dry and flavorful, with wonderful acids. This is a very individualistic wine, and fun to drink.
