Not my favorite I would not have chosen it but my dad liked it for some reason. I would have never guessed Syrah.

First Chilean Syrah. Inky dark purple. Ripe blueberry and cocoa. Decent for $9

Night 1: Sulfur, SO2, burnt match, more SO2, and so on. Blind I probably would have said Chile, but would have no idea what varietal. Thin, high-toned, and herbal, and covered in sulfur.
Night 2: The wine finally decided to show up... added weight and complexity, cranberry fruit and caramel in the mid palate.

Good dark Syrah wine, reasonably priced in Thailand where wine is expensive. I loved the wine.

Acidic, not much character. Not a fan.

This is one of the worst wines I have ever had. Completely undrinkable.

Nice 2009 Syrah for the money. Light tannins and smooth overall. Turns out this was was a great Costco impulse buy. Enjoyed in 2016.
