It is pure, rich, and elegant, with a style that begs for consumption over the next 6-8 years. <br /><br /><br /><font color="#ff0000"><br /><br /></font>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br /><br /><br /></P> <P><B>Other wines in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Category2" TITLE="Wines">Wines</A> / <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Category3" TITLE="Red Wine">Red Wine</A>:</B> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product5 TITLE="Margerum 2006 M5 Santa Ynez Valley">Margerum 2006 M5 Santa Ynez Valley</A> -- 206 Margerum M5 Santa Ynez Valley <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product12 TITLE="Margerum 2005 M5 Santa Ynez Valley - Magnum">Margerum 2005 M5 Santa Ynez Valley - Magnum</A> -- 2005 Margerum M5 Santa Ynez Valley - Magnum <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product11 TITLE="Margerum 2006 M5 Santa Ynez Valley - Magnum">Margerum 2006 M5 Santa Ynez Valley - Magnum</A> -- 2006 Margerum M5 Santa Ynez Valley - Magnum <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product21 TITLE="Margerum 2005 &quot;&#220;BER&quot; Syrah">Margerum 2005 "ÜBER" Syrah</A> -- Margerum 2005 "ÜBER" Syrah <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product8 TITLE="Margerum 2004 &quot;Colson Canyon Vineyard&quot; Syrah">Margerum 2004 "Colson Canyon Vineyard" Syrah</A> -- Margerum 2004 "Colson Canyon Vineyard" Syrah <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product1 TITLE="Margerum 2005 &quot;Colson Canyon Vineyard&quot; Syrah">Margerum 2005 "Colson Canyon Vineyard" Syrah</A> -- Margerum 2005 "Colson Canyon Vineyard" Syrah <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product20 TITLE="Margerum 2004 &quot;Vogelzang Vineyard&quot; Syrah">Margerum 2004 "Vogelzang Vineyard" Syrah</A> -- Margerum 2004 "Vogelzang Vineyard" Syrah <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product2 TITLE="Margerum 2005 &quot;Alondra de los Prados Vineyard&quot; Syrah">Margerum 2005 "Alondra de los Prados Vineyard" Syrah</A> -- Margerum 2005 "Alondra de los Prados Vineyard" Syrah <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product7 TITLE="Margerum 2005 &quot;Great Oaks Ranch Vineyard&quot; Syrah">Margerum 2005 "Great Oaks Ranch Vineyard" Syrah</A> -- Margerum 2005 "Great Oaks Ranch Vineyard" Syrah <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product60 TITLE="Margerum 2006 Grenache">Margerum 2006 Grenache</A> -- Margerum 2006 Grenache <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product26 TITLE="Margerum 2005 &quot;Purisima Mountain Vineyard&quot; Syrah - Artist label">Margerum 2005 "Purisima Mountain Vineyard" Syrah - Artist label</A> -- Margerum 2005 "Purisima Mountain Vineyard" Syrah </P> <BR clear=left><BR><P> <B>RELATED PRODUCTS</B> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline/Product26 TITLE="Margerum 2005 &quot;Purisima Mountain Vineyard&quot; Syrah - Artist label">Margerum 2005 "Purisima Mountain Vineyard" Syrah - Artist label</A></P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/mwconline" TITLE="Margerum Wine Company Wines">Margerum Wine Company Wines</A></P> <BR clear=left><BR><BR><BR><BR> <BR><A HREF="http://www.margerumwinecompany.com">Margerum Wine Company</A> <BR>Margerum Wine Company Online Store powered by Nexternal <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="ecommerce solutions">ecommerce solutions</A>
