"Another gorgeous effort is the 2008 Syrah Pelkan Ranch, a 100% Syrah aged in 60% new French oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered. Sweet licorice, blackberry and charcoal notes are followed by a wine with great intensity, sweet silky tannins and an unctuously textured, opulent mouthfeel. Already hard to resist, it should last . . ."

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.
