The medium to full-bodied palate is wonderfully perfumed with layers of savory-laced black and blue fruits and a plush texture, delivering seamless freshness, finishing long and perfumed. Gorgeous! Around 500 cases were made.\" LPB for TWI Jan 2025\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRP98 \"Some of the Syrah was brought in during the September heat wave, but most hung through it—successfully. Colgin's 2022 Syrah IX Estate blasts out of the glass with a huge wave of blueberries, followed by demure hints of cracked pepper and dried sage. It's full-bodied, rich and velvety without ever getting coarse, revealing a hint of dark chocolate on the long finish and a faint touch of warmth.\" JC for TWA Jun 2025\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDR98 \"The IX Estate Syrah from Colgin is a powerhouse of iron-stone minerality and expressive Mediterranean sweet herbs, layered with sage oil, bay leaf, and fresh blood orange citrus zest. A perfumed richness weaves through, mingling with honeysuckle, salty white truffle, molten graphite, and liquorice, creating an unbelievably expressive and deeply complex wine. Winemaker Allison Tauziet notes that the three Syrah clones planted on the estate originate from Côte-Rôtie, contributing to the wine’s nuanced aromas and flavours. Full-bodied and intensely concentrated, the pure fruit expression is multifaceted—like looking through a prism—while the unimaginably long finish lasts two minutes, driven by saline-mineral freshness and perfumed intensity. The tannins are super-suave, fine-grained, ripe, and polished, adding to the wine’s seamless texture.\" JC for DR Feb 2025","brand":"Colgin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50290353504493,"sku":"USR:COL:COLS-0750-2022-F0L0C0","price":438.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/grandcruliquidassets.com\/products\/2022-colgin-cellars-ix-estate-syrah-napa-valley-bottle-750ml","provider":"Grand Cru Liquid Assets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
