Estimate
Lots of blackberries, smoked meat and black-pepper character. Full-bodied, layered and very intense. Love the spices and dark fruits at the end, which is also combined with black chocolate and grilled meat.
Ripe red and black fruits, spice, smoked game, tapenade, and peppery notes all emerge from this full-bodied, rich, concentrated Syrah that has sweet tannin and moderate acidity.
Wonderfully deep, complex yet brooding aromas of blackberry, black raspberry, duck fat, smoked meat and fruity black peppercorn... Wonderfully dense, savory wine with a seamless texture and little easy sweetness... The slowly rising, very long finish features serious horizontal tannins and plenty of supporting fruit.
...exotic, roasted bouquet of espresso, rich soil and grilled meats, with blackberry and cassis fruit lurking in the background. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, rich and very savory, with a fine-grained, saline and somewhat fleeting finish.
The aromas are brooding out of the gate, with notes of earthy funk, freshly ground black pepper, black olive, smoked meat and tar. The palate is elegant but still richly flavorful with a lingering smoky meat-filled finish.
