"Showing every bit as well from bottle as from barrel, the 2010 Kongsgaard Syrah Hudson Vineyard is brilliant! Possessing a deep ruby/purple color, it offers up a complex, gamey array of smoked black fruits, toast, ash, chocolate, tobacco, and dry-aged beef that gives way to a full-bodied, impeccably put together palate. Decadent, rich, and thrillingly textured, this knockout Napa Valley Syrah stays light and clean, with a weightless feel, solid underlying structure, and a blockbuster finish. Up there with the ’07 and borderline perfection, this profound effort needs another 2-3 years of bottle age, and will evolve gracefully . . ."
