Note di degustazione
Possessing a cool climate profile, the 2006 Radio-Coteau Syrah Timbervine has bright and lifted aromatics of blackberry and raspberry fruit, white pepper, underbrush and fresh flowers. The palate is medium bodied with a beautiful, sappy texture, pure fruit and a long finish with fine grained tannins. Decidedly northern Rhône with its fruit and acid profile, this should drink well over the next decade or more.

No tasting note given. Radio-Coteau is another great success story, with proprietor Eric Sussman producing small-lot, handcrafted wines. Everything is fermented naturally, there are no enzymes, acidulations, very low SO2 is utilized, and the wines are bottled in-house, with neither fining nor filtration. This is always an exciting line-up of wines that remain fairly priced. While I always think of Sussman as a master with his red wine varietals, such as Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Zinfandel, he certainly impressed me with his two vintages of Chardonnay from the very cool-climate Savoy Vineyard of Anderson Valley.

Opaque purple. Sexy blueberry, cassis and floral aromas are complemented by smoked meat, dusty minerals and cracked pepper. Very pretty wine, offering seductive dark berry flavors, velvety texture and building spiciness. Utterly seamless, with superb finishing clarity and sweet persistence. I kept looking for rough edges but there were none to be found.
