A serious and savory Syrah that stays open and rich enough to invite drinking tonight. All whole-cluster, giving both sweet spice and attractive globs of tannin to support the black fruit, smoked meat, fresh earth, cracked black pepper and granite aromas and flavors. A year in old barrels polished the tannins so they squeeze pleasantly rather than rasp or bite. A terrific grilled/roasted meat red and great with hearty vegetarian dishes dotted with black olives.
For You If: “Bold, meaty, savory, peppery and firm” sounds like your kind of wine; you want the roundness of American Syrah but with the fruit dialed back and savory elements dialed up a bit.
Not For You If: You like your reds soft, supple, round and full of fruit – this is pretty grippy and savory but not hard-edged or tough.
