"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."
