Wine Tasting: 2006 Bridgeview Vineyards "Black Beauty" Syrah

Appellation: Southern Oregon.

This was a pleasant wine, but could stand to age about another year or two. Relatively dry for a Syrah (I prefer fruitier), but still quite a pleasant wine. It's light enough to be able to go with chicken, pasta, and other less heavy dishes. Medium-bodied and easy drinking. I picked this up back in early July when I was with my folks visiting Crater Lake in southern Oregon. Not the best of the bunch that I picked up, but very good for it's reasonable price at the winery ($17).

Recommendation: 3 out of 5.
