Well, I bottled my Crushendo Santa Ynez Valley Syrah a couple of weeks ago that I started in August. I actually oaked it with French Toast oak cubes for 2 months. I've been trying to decide how to discribe it to you all the past two weeks.
It is a very beautiful rich deep purple with a nice body to it but I'm a little worried about the taste. It was pretty sharp and bitter. I did sweeten it up a bit....only a bit because I want it to be dry. I'm hoping that aging will take away the bitterness so I'm going to leave thatit alone for a good long while.Anyone have the same thoughts on this one?
