2004 Copain Syrah Eaglepoint Ranch

From an 1,800 foot elevation vineyard in Mendocino, the 2004 Syrah Eaglepoint Ranch reveals loads of heady blackberry, charcoal, graphite, pepper, and underbrush aromas. A pure, rich, full-bodied, unfined and unfiltered Syrah with a terrific texture, it should drink well for 8-10 years.
