Tasting Notes

The big-statement syrah from Craggy Range has a very attractive, pristine, pure nose on the red-fruit spectrum. Cloaked in pepper and spice, there's a dark, stony thread and a musky fragrance that is bolstered by fresh new oak. The palate has deep-driving shape; tannins layer up in smooth, sheet-like form, carrying dark- and red-fruit flavors deep and even. Finshes with sappy freshness. Drink now.

Score: 96

Medium garnet-purple-colored, the 100% Syrah 2011 Le Sol opens with warm blackberry, kirsch and mulberry aromas fused with hints of spice box, violets and chocolate, plus a whiff of pepper. Medium-bodied and offering great finesse and poise in the mouth, it has a medium level of rounded tannins, lively yet well-balanced acidity and finishes with great length. (92+)
