2006 Two Angles Peite Syrah $19.99


I'm not sure what is going on in Napa, but it seems like they are trying to compete against Washington and France. At first I thought this might be a wine I could drink. Then I tasted it. It was a wine that was made in a different world. Black as ink in color, a nose that smelled like the color with maybe a hint of earth. On the palate it was a massive TNT keg ready to go off, and there was enough oak to choke a logger. I know Napa is wanting to become the wine capital of the world, but shit...just make a wine we can all like. Come to WA or France and learn something.
