"Looking at the 2002 James Berry Vineyard Bone Rock, it is much more classic in style, with clean blackcurrant and blackberry fruit, licorice, spice and assorted meatiness and charcuterie-like nuances showing on the nose. Full-bodied, voluptuous and layered, with a smoking texture, it, too, has some maturity, and is certainly in its drink window. It finishes clean and dry, with integrated, yet still sweet tannin. Comprised of 88% Syrah and 12% Grenache that spent 18 months in French oak, it’s a knockout Paso Robles Syrah that’s aging gracefully. Starting with the Bone Rock releases, these come from a west-facing, terraced section of James Berry Vineyard. It’s named after the incredible whale bones that were found while creating the terraces."

The fourth-largest wine producer in the world, led by California. American fine wine is defined by ripe, expressive fruit and a spirit of innovation, with Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon among the most sought-after wines globally.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
