title: Sean Thackrey 2008 Orion Rossi Vineyard Red (St. Helena)
description: Made from a 106-year-old vineyard in Napa Valley, this wine is usually referred to as Syrah, but its exact components are difficult to define, except to call the wine Rhône-like. It's luxuriously soft in the mouth, with complex flavors of black raspberries, cocoa, cola, herbs, peppery spices and sandalwood. Extraordinarily rich, the wine develops bottle nuances as it warms in the glass.
variety: Red Blend
