 I have to agree with the other comments, this is just an outstanding Syrah from this small producer. Carneros

Delicious. Had the fruit, had the balance. really good. wanted a bit more funk, a splash of gamey meat and thus would be perfect.

This is quite a rich and fruit forward Syrah, while keeping alcohol level low. Very nicely balanced. Big up Back Room Wines for the recommendation.

Bright, ripe red fruit with violets on the nose and finish. Just the right amount of funk to let you know it's honest.

Here you go
@Ben Brenner I Delectabled your wine. Nicely done.

13.6% ABV.

If I haven’t recommended Benevolent Neglect enough previously here’s another attempt.
Ultra limited production - it’s one of those new “garagiste” CA wineries that you just have to seek out....

Lightest bodied of the '14 Las Madres Syrahs. Should pair well with our spicy BBQ Chicken.
