| 67773 | 67772 | Portugal | A ripe, spicy and juicy wine that has good acidity and balanced tannins.

| 67792 | 67791 | Chile | This seems like it was probably better earlier in its life.

| 67793 | 67792 | US | This has lots of ripe, jammy raspberry and cherry flavors, with a spicy finish. But it's too soft and glyceriney sweet in high alcohol. | | 83 | 50 | California | Sonoma County | Sonoma | | | Super Sonoman 2009 Syrah (Sonoma County) | Syrah | Super Sonoman |
| 67794 | 67793 | Chile | This is dry, scratchy and peppery smelling, with a soft, plump mouthfeel, plus leafy, herbal flavors of baked berry and plum.

| 67797 | 67796 | Chile | Mild raspberry and oak aromas make for a timid bouquet. The palate feels edgy and acidic, with herbal, oaky flavors of bramble and red fruit.
