A gorgeous nose with graphite, spiced black pepper, sweet dark fruits, and slight pyrazine-esque green leafy notes. Pepper and sweet spice with rounded, juicy tannins, firm and supremely elegant. Dense core of spiced fruit, but again it’s a juicy, fresh acidity underneath. Really impressive and powerful with well-integrated alcohol. Excellent.
COMPOSITION: 100% Syrah
