2007 Charles Smith "Royal City" Washington Syrah (1.5L)

Bid on this magnum of 2007 Charles Smith "Royal City" Washington Syrah (1.5L) (99RP). Wine Advocate: "The 2007 Royal City Syrah Stone Ridge Vineyard (4 barrels were produced) was made with 100% whole clusters. An inky purple/black in color, it deals out aromas of mineral, truffle, espresso, licorice, lavender, incense, and blueberry. Super complex, suave and debonair on the palate, this is a lengthy, concentrated, impeccably balanced, complete Syrah that will benefit from a decade of cellaring but is almost too addictive to resist now. Those with willpower who are able to delay gratification will be well rewarded for cellaring this beauty for a decade or more." (10/2010)
