serious and structured package
plush and very ripe but not overly sweet
93 ha monopole of the domaine
fragrant finish
This borderline old school effort is sufficiently firmly structured to suggest that all of a decade will be necessary for it to arrive at its peak
Ramey, Rodgers Creek Vineyard Syrah other_regions serious and structured packageAs with the 14, the 2012 Syrah Rodgers Creek Vineyard saw a whopping 10% Viognier. Its still young and offers a sensational perfume of currants, smoked meats, olives, spices, and crushed flowers. Its a full bodied, rounded, voluptuous beauty that has no hard edges, a flamboyant, sexy personality, and a great finish. Count me as a fan. It will continue drinking beautifully for another decade or more.
