Vinum 2005 Petite Syrah - PETS
(over 2 years ago) buddy icon martian 75/100
An older year of this received a very polarized review at our wine tasting party last year. A few people gave it a 10, many others 1 or 2. The 2004 was really summarized as a "fruit bomb". Someone said they tasted "tuna" deep inside the glass... The 2005 is not quite as fruity, more tannic and deep. I think petite syrah is a tough varietal to love. Very french and earthy.

'Sokay, but it's lacking something. I'm not entirely sure what. Some tanins. A little depth, but not much. A little fruit. Just lacks oomph. That's the only way I can describe it. Unfortunate, as I really like that they give some profits from this wine to their local animal shelter.

Not all that complex, but the brief wave of banana flavor is pleasant enough. Good with food.
