Syrah from France and Italy

[Thraz]

I have had a couple of bad bottles of the Jalets 2001 recently (last few months). Actually they were so bad, I had to pour the last one. I have a few more to go, I will try one again shortly - I hope your notes mean the wine was just in a funk for a while. I loved the 2000 though (which is why I bought the 2001 blind by the case). I also have one bottle remaining of the 2000, maybe a micro-vertical is in order.
