WTN: 2013 Bonny Doon "Le Poseur" Syrah

by Brian K Miller » Wed Jan 06, 2016 6:02 pm

Central Coast blend from several vineyards.

I really like the wild and crazy herbal funk of this Syrah. Tastes like some funkier Rhone wines! There is also a polished blackberry fruit layer with a sheen of balanced oak. Alcohol does not stick out in any way. Tannins are not obtrusive (to me). A ton of acid, although there has been bottle variation w/r/t the acid levels.

I am not sure why I do not buy more Bonny Doon. I almost always enjoy his wines!
