Last Saturday we had a family get together at my parent's house. My dad made prime rib, and Noah and I provided wine for everyone to taste. We finally opened our Covey Run Syrah. We have had it since Cooper was a baby!
First off, I couldn't find tasting notes for it. The Covey Run website has tasting notes for "all its past varieties" except apparently they don't! But overall, it is a VERY dark wine. It was slightly acidic, and very heavy-bodied for my taste. It was very deep and dark, like cherries and pomergranate, but with not much sweetness to balance it. It was interesting because so far, most of the dark wines we have tried have also been very dry. This didn't leave that "suck your mouth dry" feeling in your mouth. It was interesting. Noah really really liked it. I found it too bold. Guess my taste buds just aren't ready for it!
