re: My 12 Favorite Wines of 2012

Do you like Syrah?

I do, but it's also the best value in the world in expensive wine. Check out the Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines list that was just released last month. The top 4 wines are syrah, and the list is dominated by syrah or syrah blends. For the life of me I can't figure out why this wine hasn't caught on more with the general wine drinking public.

When you get into less expensive wines, it's a different story. My list next week of the top 12 wines under $20 doesn't have any syrahs on it.
