Ok, someone's playing a trick on Drew. This is a nice Pinot Noir and not a Syrah. Raspberry, tea, cola, forest floor and earthy notes. Medium bodied with well integrated tannins. Nothing like a syrah...no resemblance a 'tall. Even Eileen agreed. If served blind I would have bet 2 of WW's pay checks that it was Pinot. A nice, albeit confusing, wine. 13.6 %Alc/vol.
$13. Here's what the winery has to say about the wine.

Drew

Vineyard Sources: 36 % Rodney's (Santa Ynez Valley),
31% Meeker (Paso Robles), 18% French Camp (Paso Robles)
& 15% Wild Rose (Lodi).

Barrel Aging: 100% Barrel aged for 7 months

Alcohol: 13.6%, T.A.: 0.532 g/100ml, p.H.: 3.81

Bottling Date: June 18-21, 2001
Case Production: 6838 Completed cases
Composition: 78% Syrah, 12% Grenache & 10% Carignane.

Winemaker's Comments:
A Syrah with a nicely focused core of dark, rich blueberry, cherry and plum fruits and moderate tannins. These elements are complemented by sweet spices, mint, smoke, meat and earthy notes.
