Tasting - Cline Syrah


•Name: Cline Syrah
•Variety:  Syrah
•Region: Sonoma County
•Country: USA
•Year: 2014

Wine Label Description: "Cline Cellar's Syrah is a deep purple wine of surprising complexity, exploding with black cherry fruit and cracked black pepper. Long associated with France's Rhone Valley, this wine has a compelling, carefree intensity. Try our syrah with gnocchi or mushroom polenta."

My review: Michael, one of the owners of Carolina Vines, recommended that I try this wine after I told him that I liked the Malbec in the wine flight that I had with the cheese. It definitely smelled a lot like dark fruit, especially cherry. It also tasted strongly of cherries. I eventually did taste a little bit of the black pepper. I really enjoyed this wine too.
