"The 2009 Block B (Syrah) is a huge, explosive wine loaded with personality. Violets, flowers, mint, grilled herbs and tar add considerable lift and freshness to layers of sumptuous dark fruit. The 2009 has an upper floral register and sweet inner perfume that is absolutely irresistible. The wine continues to open up beautifully with time in the glass. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2017."

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.
