On the nose, it takes on white pepper and black olive tapenade alongside hoisin sauce, dark truffle, boysenberry, creosote and seaweed tones that all meld in the glass. The palate is plush, soft and incredibly complex. Fresh and vibrant with silky tannins and wonderful length. This is a beautiful wine that flirts with perfection.
...fantastic with aromas of salami, cured meat and dusty leather before showcasing a sanguine and dark red berry essence. Medium to full-bodied, notions of smoked peat moss sway with a fleshy but firm mouthfeel before displaying a delicate mineral tension across the mid-palate with a tannic edge...persistent finish...
...beautiful perfume of darker cherry and black raspberry-like fruits as well as smoked earth, shitake mushroom, iron, and exotic, floral and bloody nuances. This is one feral, exotic, incredibly complex Syrah that stills bring beautiful fruit, medium to full-bodied richness, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish.
