Description:
I smell with one nose, an ancient black nose,
a memory lingering, briefly exposed.
I see with two eyes, through shadows and lies,
a secret revealing, wrapped in disguise.
I hear with my ears, three fallen tears,
echoing softly, heightening my fears.
I taste with my tongue, my panics begun,
four sides enclosed, melding as one.
I touch with my hands, a sinister plan,
five fingers discerning where I do stand.
I sense with my mind, a thought so unkind,
I’m trapped six feet under in a bottle of wine.

Varietal Definition
Syrah:
Syrah is the eight hundred pound gorilla of Rhone grapes! In the vineyard and the winery, Syrah is typically an easy grape to work with - healthy, early ripening, resistant to mildew and rot; suitable for winemaking in a variety of styles. The wines from Syrah are tannic without being harsh. The wines will have a taste and smell of dark blue fruit like blackberries and blackcurrant, with a strong spicy side where one can find freshly ground pepper and other spices. Syrah is famous for its part in the French blends, such as Côtes du Rhone and Châteauneuf du Pape.
