" Hahn Estates vineyards in Monterey yielded a rich, jammy syrah in 2003 reeking with wild berry flavors and aromas, while their Paso Robles vineyard possessed the wonderful cracked pepper characteristics one typically finds in a wine from the south of France. Once combined aromas abound with tanned leather, raspberry and currant and a subtle hint of cedar. Ripe, chewy flavors of red fruit, blackberry and plum precede a distinctly spicy and round mid palate. The tannins are broad, melting and mature, gripping the back of the tongue well into the finish. Aged for 12 months in 60% new, 32% one-year-old and 8% neutral French barrels. Try with grilled pork tenderloin with a blackberry compote."
