Three Saints Syrah 2008 (California)

I was looking for a nice Syrah when I found this one, it was a pleasant little Syrah.

On the pour this wine was dark inky purple with slight cherry rim. On the nose this wine is clean, fully intense and developing aromas of bright red cherry, red raspberry, light cassis, blackberry and huge blueberry notes with savory baked earth. On the palate this wine has moderate red current, moderate body with flavors of leather, hints of dark coffee and berries. Good balance and structure.

All in all it's a nice wine and I would purchase it again. Needs to be drank by 2014 as as it will not develop further in bottle.
