2010 O.G.T. MAGNUM – Syrah

After tasting many blends, we once again decided on a 50% Colson Canyon Syrah; 25% Thompson Syrah and 25% Tierra Alta Syrah blend. The Colson Canyon brings weight, extraction and notes of chocolate and smoked meats to the equation while the Thompson adds mouthwatering notes of bright red fruits and a solid structure. The Tierra Alta rounds out the blend with its minerality and deep berry notes. As always we ask ourselves how this blend reflects the personality of its namesake, our son, Oliver Gunnar Tensley. The Colson brings to mind Oliver’s openness and warm-hearted nature. Thompson definitely reflects his more serious, contemplative side. And Tierra Alta? That reminds us of his vivid imagination. Overall this wine is a delightfully complex blend replete with notes of jammy fruits, a round, viscous mouthfeel and a long, lingering finish. Drink this wine now or allow it to age for the next 5 to 12 years.
