The beautiful, deep ruby/purple-hued 2003 Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard Hillside Estate's exuberant perfume of creme de cassis, charcoal, and subtle smoke is followed by a peppery, full-bodied wine with impressive concentration, terrific ripeness and purity, and a long, smooth, cascading finish. Drink it over the next decade.

Bright, deep ruby-red. Explosive, ripe, high-toned aromas of blackberry, black raspberry, flowers and spicy oak. Sweet, lush and dense, with terrific intensity of cherry, spice and floral flavor. Finishes impressively broad, sweet and long, with fine tannins and lingering notes of flowers, iron and graphite.
