Veraison Synchrony 2002


Winepath and Uncle-N are in Denver attending a meeting. Finally, we (actually winepath) found a nice wine bar in Denver. This is the wine we tasted tonight.

The nose is beautiful with lots of black cherry laced with caramel, vanilla and chocolate. The mouth feel is like silk...smooth. Good fruits of cherry, blue berry, plum with caramel and mocha. Nice silky but firm tannin supports the good amount of fruits and long finish, Very nice wine. The wine bar is called "CRU". A high ceiling with one wall lined with library like shelves stocked with wines and are fitted with a sliding ladder in front. We had a flight of Italian cheeses and California cabs before Veraison. With Veraison, we had seared Ahi tuna and "lollipop" of lambs. Perfect! Before tonight, we tasted Jordan cab 03, Duckhorn Merlot 04, Molly Dooker "Two left feet", Chat de Pez 2002 among others; all of them are respectable but Verasion takes a cake.
