"One of the most riveting of the 2001 Syrahs is the inky blue/black/purple-colored 2001 Syrah Melville Vineyard, from a cool climate vineyard considered by many of the locals to be one of the finest sites of the region. The 2001 exhibits aromas of acacia flowers intermixed with melted licorice, blackberry liqueur, and subtle oak. Spectacularly rich, with fabulous intensity, a multilayered mid-palate, and a formidable finish with moderately high tannin . . . . Impressive juice!"

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.
