Lots of stubborn sulfur. Earthy, tough flavors, with a dry, rasping finish. 1 Note

Right up there in ripe power with the Domaine's other fabulous '02 Syrahs, but even more intense in concentrated black cherry and cocoa fruit, with a strong note of smoked meat or leather.Totally dry, this is a big, impressive young wine with compelling flavors. 1 Note

Only a mild vegetal hint to the nose holds this back. Otherwise, it’s round and chunky, and quite well balanced. The red fruit on the palate is vivid, and the vanilla-tinged oak seems to grace that fruit. The texture throughout is good, as is the color. 1 Note

Has some interesting herbal, peppery overtones to the nose, but the flavors are simple and fruity, a blend of blackberry and cherry, finishing short. 1 Note

Broad and mouthfilling but lacking depth and complexity, this Syrah offers black cherry and vanilla flavors that turn tough and tannic on the finish. 1 Note

Starts out a touch raw and woody, then cherry, plum and popcorn flavors come out on the tongue. Fairly lean and driving, with a candied, firm finish. Forward and tannic, with quite a bit of snap. Imported by Global Vineyard Importers. 1 Note

Starts off with aromas of licorice, earth and roasted red berries. The flavors are predominately tart berry, but fold in some complex smoke and game notes. Decently structured, this is one value-priced Syrah that may repay short-term cellaring. 1 Note

Ripe, rich and rubbery, and seemingly just hitting its stride. The nose offers earth, tar and lots of magnetic black fruit. Flavors of plum, blackberry and sugar beet are sweet yet not candied, while the finish deals espresso, mocha and wood dust. A very good Chilean Syrah, but one that should be judged among its Chilean brethren. 1 Note

Made by heavy hitters from Burgundy-Aubert de Villaine, who runs Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, and Jacques Seysses, who owns Domaine Dujac. Although the wine bears little resemblance to either, it is still pretty toothsome. Lots of spicy fruit, with length. 1 Note

Extraordinarily rich in briary flavors of wild blackberries, licorice, cocoa and pepper, this Syrah has the added virtue of finishing dry. Although it’s a bit soft, it’s a beauty, especially at this price. 1 Note
