2004 Syrah, Bien Nacido Vineyard

The 2004 Bien Nacido Vineyard Syrah is our darkest wine. More extracted than usual, it is rich and fruitful on the finish, with density and power. It may our best Bien Nacido Syrah to date. It has a classic BNV high-tone, candy-spice-cherry-sweet tar aroma and a thick, dark-fruit taste. Extra barrel aging intensifies the flavors and aromas. It was made using four new French, two new American older French and American barrels. (240 cases produced)
