“The just-bottled 2012 Syrah Las Colinas races across the palate with layers of expressive dark red fruit. Still quite primary, the 2012 isn’t showing much in the way of aromatics at this point. Instead, the appeal – and there is a lot of it – is mostly textural. There is a pulsating energy to the 2012 that makes it absolutely irresistible. The sweet, silky tannins suggest the 2012 will drink beautifully right out of the gate. In 2012, Las Colinas is a blend of fruit from several sources; 54% Cherry Camp, 27% Dusty Lane and 16% Timbervine.”
