100% Syrah. Dark ruby/purple color. Aromas of dark fruit, smoke and a bit of barnyard funk. (Blows off quickly) Ripe blueberry and blackberry fruit on the palate with notes of mint, baking spices and wood. Beautiful long and earthy finish. Smokey tannins. Quite fruit forward and full bodied, but with a very soft texture. Well balanced. Very pleasant. — 15 days ago
