Monticello Vineyards 2004 Syrah, Estate

Tasting Notes:
This 2004 Monticello Vineyards Rose of Syrah aromatics are of rose petals, cranberry with floral tones and a hint of spice. The flavors are strawberry, cherry with spicy notes of cinnamon. The texture is delightful with a brisk attack and crisp, clean refreshing acidity. The wine is an easy drinker, meant to be enjoyed out of an ice chest while you are letting the barbeque warm-up. It’s crisp acidity and bright, easy fruit flavors are refreshing, and also pair up well with a fruit salad. Some might even enjoy it as a palate cleanser or as a counterbalance to a sweet dish.
