Note di degustazione
The 2010 Syrah Altamont reveals a deeper ruby/purple color as well as a more layered mouthfeel, medium to full body, and sweeter black fruit, floral and forest floor characteristics. Drink this supple 2010 over the next 5-7 years. The ever reliable Tom Dehlinger continues to turn out realistically priced wines of exceptionally high quality. Their newest offerings, the Altamont Pinot Noir and Syrah, come from a hilltop vineyards planted in gravelly red soils previously called “Estate.” The Frei Road Syrah emanates from a 2.5-acre block of what was the Martinelli-owned Zio Tony Ranch. Dehlinger has never been one to utilize a tremendous amount of new oak for their Chardonnay program, and both the 2010 and 2011 Estate Chardonnays reflect that. Tel. (707) 823-2378

The 2010 Syrah Altamont emphasizes overt fruit more than complexity, but it is just as enticing. Dark red berries, flowers and spices all flesh out in this racy, expressive wine. The Altamont is all about fruit and immediacy, whereas the Goldridge is a wine of greater complexity. Both are engaging and immensely pleasing.
