Sodovino 2007 "So", Syrah, Columbia Valley $19. Best Buy

WORLD WINE CHAMPIONSHIPS AWARD: Gold Medal 93 points (Exceptional)

Deep garnet violet color. Aromas of dusty eucalyptus leaf and blackberry yogurt follow through on a soft, supple entry to a dryish medium body with cedar pencil shaving notes and a tangy, dusty spice and tannin fade. Very nice structure and ageability in a northern Rhone style.
