Notes on the Russian Hill Syrah Windsor Oaks Summit Russian River Valley 2001 : NVWE NOTES: Opaque purple color. Deep purple plum, dark cherry, vanilla, tobacco leaf, leather nose with white pepper, and black pepper underneath andf a general impression of brooding power. Dense, mouthcoating, powerful similar flavors, with lots of dark, submerged cherry,plum and tobacco that expand overnight. Heavy, tight and focused, but decidedly an ager. Needs three years plus to fully display all its charms, but should be worth the wait.RUSSIAN HILL SYRAH WINDSOR OAKS SUMMIT RUSSIAN RIVER VALLEY 2001

- the wine I chose to serve my Francophile business contact at a key business dinner. A very big wine, yet elegant. Classic cool climate terroir. Yummy.
