This is a nice 5 “A” wine.   Under $10 makes it Affordable.   It is definitely Above Average, and the overall bouquet is Amazing.   The other two As just naturally fall into place.   The fact that it is a Syrah under $10 alone would make it Astounding.   But the way it tastes in your mouth as you swish it around and roll it back on your tongue, makes you want to holler “Awesome!!” And it is.

I read about Vic McWilliams, the winemaker, and it brought back memories of the days when I used to make my own wines from Wine Art.   Vic has been making wines for about 25 years.   I got started making my own wines in 1971.
