Hudson Vineyard North Block Syrah
At a good place. The Hudson usually does not rank as my fave A-R syrah, but the time in bottle works here.

Jul 23rd, 2014Surprisingly tart - deep, concentrated fruit and a bit of smoke all brought together with superb acidity. The tannins are light, but still show up. Outstanding.

Sep 16th, 2013Opens with some olive tapenade and the flavors extend to other dark savory notes. This is a light bodied but full flavored wine. Still fresh and lively. Under 13% abv. Very cool to see how these age.
