In search of...value syrah

Paul Gregutt put a post on his blog recently about why Washington syrah doesn't sell particularly well. One of the reasons he lists, which I agree with, is that there are not very many good Washington syrahs in the value category (less than $15). I would love to be proven wrong on this as I like syrah and enjoy a good deal as much as the next person.

I put post up on my blog today listing wines $15 and under and $30 and under that I thought represented great values for the price point. You can check out the post at the link below. Questions I would be interested in hearing people's thoughts on are:

1. Why do you think Washington syrah does not sell particularly well? See Gregutt's 6/13 post for other ideas on this.

2. What do you think are good Washington syrahs at $15 and under and $30 and under.

Tim, I *know* you in particular are going to have some great thoughts on this one.
