J. Lohr Estates, Paso Robles (California) Syrah 2010

Mar 25, 2012

By Michael Franz

 A juicy, jammy, fun-filled mouthful of Syrah, this is dark and deeply flavorful, with loads of supple dark berry fruit and virtually no wood influence.  The tannins are so effectively neutralized by the fruit that they’re entirely welcome on account of their framing function, and the softly rounded texture and exuberant sweetness of the fruit will make this a star with almost any grilled meat prepared with a spicy rub. Platinum award winner at the San Diego International Wine Competition.
