WTN:Margerum 2004 Santa Barbara Syrah - Alondra de los Prado

dark garnet - attractive floral aromas - medium weight on palate with a minerally backbone - ripe Syrah fruit that stops short of jamminess - a very nice, balanced wine at cellar temp, it finishes a touch hot as it warms at the table.
Wonderfully aromatic as I remember tasting it as a future - the wine hasn't changed much at all. I think it will develop nicely in the bottle over the next few years.
