      <title>Synergy 2002, Richardson Vineyard</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Suzanne and I enjoy finding and drinking good wines, and especially when we can find a great wine under $20, or better yet, under $15. However we often will drink a wine and then forget if we liked it or not, so we are going to blog about some of the wines we liked.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;The first wine is a Synergy 2002 from &lt;a href="http://www.richardsonvineyards.com/index.html"&gt;Richardson Vineyard&lt;/a&gt; which is a blend of 66% Syrah, 15% Merlot, 13% Zinfandel and 6% Cabernet.  Overall, we really enjoyed this wine. It had a nice overall complexity with some earthy tones. The one drawback was that it was a little to acidic for drinking by itself, which is how we usually drink wines.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;This wine received a gold medal at the &lt;a href="http://www.fliwc.com/2006Results.asp"&gt;Finger Lakes International Wine Competition&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;We bought this wine at the &lt;a href="http://www.thewineclub.com"&gt;Wine Club&lt;/a&gt;, but they don&amp;#8217;t have it on their web site anymore. &lt;a href="http://www.wine.com"&gt;Wine.com&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.bevmo.com"&gt;BevMo&lt;/a&gt; also do not have it&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;The only place I could find it on the web was at &lt;a href="http://www.sonomacellardoor.com/menu_2005.html"&gt;The Cellar Door&lt;/a&gt;  restaurant. However, &lt;a href="http://www.thewineclub.com"&gt;Wine Club&lt;/a&gt; sometimes has some wines in stock that don&amp;#8217;t show up on their web site, so check out their store and grab a bottle or two if you see it.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;4 out of 5 stars&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;You can find 2002 Synergy at selected Costco locations. Call the warehouses and an associate will be able to tell you available locations. Also,the price is unbelievable!&lt;/p&gt;</description>
