Zaca Mesa Mesa Reserve Syrah


Name: Zaca Mesa Mesa Reserve Syrah
Variety: Reserve Syrah
Region: Santa Barbara County
Country: U.S.
Year: 2009
Price: $44.95

Professional Review: This wine displays rustic blackberry, cassis, mocha, cedar and our signature sage spice aromas and flavors. The finish lingers from the ripe tannins and smoky oak. This full-bodied wine should be enjoyed over the next ten years.

My Review: This Reserve Syrah reminded me a lot of the smells from the Viognier but the tastes from the Z Cuvee. It had a very fruity, flowery smell, specifically blackberries and violets. It had a lot of acidity and nice tannins which I felt was a very good mix. I had this wine at a tasting without a meal.
