Estate Bottled Syrah 2008

My first time with Dehlinger Syrah. I believe this ‘08 estate is all from their Altamont vineyard in the Russian River Valley.

Deep red/purple in the glass, hardly any bricking. Aromatics of ripe red and black berries, violets, and sweet spices. I don’t detect any savory notes and assuming no use of whole clusters as I don’t get any type of green/lifted profile. Even at 15-16yrs, this is deep with fruit…black raspberries, black currant, dark cocoa, fig, vein of sweetness down the middle, but with a coffee/mocha grippy finish. Followed over two days and, shockingly, held up just fine. Pop the corks and enjoy.

Don’t know when they picked but 08 was a Sonoma fire year.

Estate Bottled Goldridge Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020

2020 vintage. That Dehlinger style...big and bold, yet retaining a handful of subtleties if you sift through the initial assault. Feel free to age this for a decade+. Well-composed. Medium/medium-heavy body. 9.6.23. — 7 months ago
