Ratings
92 points - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, - Dec 2008 Once again Lagier Meredith has fashioned a beautiful, elegant, complex, dark ruby/purple-tinged Syrah Mount Veeder. Wine producer Carol Meredith’s 2006 offers up abundant, complex aromas of flowers, blue and black fruits, forest floor, and earth. The wine possesses sweet tannin, exquisite balance, medium to full body, and no hard edges. Drink this tasty Syrah over the next 7-8 years.
94 points - Joshua Greene, Wine & Spirits, - Feb 2009 Carole Meredith and Stephen Lagier grow meaty, spicy, floral syrah at their vineyard on Mount Veeder. This vintage is dark and dense, yielding an earthy character against the red cherry flavors in the finish. It's refined and lasting, ready to decant for roast lamb chops and butternut squash.
