The bouquet sets this all up with notes that announce your about to enjoy a real prize. Almost like a ghost - at first, it's feet never touch the ground (your tongue) but before you know it it's gone - leaving a delicate wake of mature red fruit and a great finish behind. Brilliant!

Showing a little more tannin than it probably should but still great with food.

A lovely Syrah, perhaps a bit too woody, but packed with flavor and a great structure. Viscous, jammy mouthfeel. Savory lamb, herbs, olives, crushed flowers. Will benefit from more time.
