2007 Olson Ogden Syrah Unti Vineyard

**2007 Olson Ogden Syrah Unti Vineyard (USA, California, Sonoma County, Dry Creek Valley)** The nose was very earthy with lots of tar and smoke. These smells surrounded a core of black currant and cherry. It ended with a tiny amount of pepper and vanilla. The palate was very rich, with quite a tannic bite. The fruit was a bit more prominent, with the earthy flavors underneath. It finished with a bunch of pepper and just a touch of oak. (92 pts.)
