Cline Cellars
Oakley Eighty - Two Syrah Blend
California, USA
Raspberry, dried cranberry, black cherry, nice touch of leather on the nose with some strawberry. The flavors show the nose well. The finish is fruit driven and has some sweetness. Not bad.

Very drinkable reasonably priced blend from Sonoma. Not terribly complex with lots of jammy fruit on the palette. Goes well with Indian or simple Italian foods. Wegmans sells it at a fair price.

Jan 31st, 2016The nose is super deceiving and is reminiscent of tar. This isn't how it comes across on the palate. Medium jammy fruit and pretty good after a little aeration. I wouldn't buy a case, but would drink it if served at a restaurant.
