TODAY'S FEATURED WINE

Lewis Perdue's Rating of Calder Wine Company: Syrah: Carneros - Napa Valley - California: : 2012: United States

Pepper, bacon plums, cherries, oak and well-behaved tannins make this Napa/Carneros Syrah a yummy glass. $28 suggested retail 

 REVIEW POLICY:

For winery tasting samples, gifts from friends or family or samplings at a party or event, review it truthfully, but only if I like it. If I have paid my own very-hard-earned money on a bottle, the gloves are off and it gets what it deserves ... whether perfect or puerile.
