Inky and concentrated, with thrilling aromas of blackberry, lavender, pepper, candied violets, and bacon fat, the 2009 DuMOL Syrah Jack Robert's Run comes from a cool terroir on the western edge of the Russian River valley and was aged for 16 months in 40% new French oak. Full-bodied yet brilliantly focused and pure, with loads of richness, solid acids, and a structured finish, this top-notch Syrah should benefit from 2-3 years of bottle age, and have upwards of 10-12 years of longevity.
The 2009 Syrah Jack Robert’s Run Gregori Vineyard is a gorgeous wine layered with blackberries, tar, graphite, incense, camphor and game. In 2009 winemaker Andy Smith waited out the rain and harvested in late October. He was rewarded with a huge, opulent wine that possesses stunning richness and intensity yet is not at all heavy. A mineral-drenched finish adds the last layer of complexity.
Highly perfumed aromas of candied red and dark berries, smoky minerals, Asian spices and black pepper. Deeply pitched black raspberry and cherry flavors show impressive intensity and pick up spice and floral pastille nuances with air. Silky, sweet Syrah, with gentle tannins and building notes of olive and peppery spices on the very long, sappy finish.
