Syrah from Carneros

[Boatboy24]

The color is a rather interesting dark purple with pink around the outside.

If I'm not mistaken, that is a sign of a young wine. Thought I'd read somewhere that as they age out, the color is more consistent from center of glass to the outside.

Interesting, I've not heard this before but I also don't see why not. However, the Syrah on it's own was very dark purple, and the Grenache on it's own was a much lighter pink/red. Both of them were consistent in color on their own. My inclination is that the color is as it is because of the blend. I'm surely quite interested in what will happen to the color as it ages.
