RATINGS

93James Suckling

Lots of black plums, dark cherry compote, baking spices, vanilla and resin. Full body and tons of rich dark fruit, but it's so well supported by a stream of fresh acidity and a firm tannin backbone. A long finish.

92Robert M. Parker Jr.

Solidly built, with a racy iron note that frames the core of red currant, damson plum and cherry fruit nicely, letting light tobacco, pepper and sanguine details flitter through the background.

92Wine Enthusiast

Attractive scents of brambly berry and red plum set the stage on the nose of this bright, spicy wine. A pleasant herbaceous, stalky note coupled with a peppery lift lend depth and complexity, while final flavors of church incense, cola spice and tilled soil unfold on the finish. The satiny mouthfeel offers plush tannins and an earthy, mineral texture that provides good grip to the close.

91Wine Spectator

...perfumed bouquet of bilberry and mulberry fruit; white pepper and touches of clove...medium-bodied palate offers supple tannin, slight earthiness on the entry and truffle and black pepper toward the lightly spiced finish.

17Jancis Robinson

Light, minerally nose. Very racy and lively. Lots of sinew and stony stuff to suck on.

TYPE

Red Wine, Syrah (Shiraz)

This grape is grown in milder climates and produces a medium-to full-bodied wine. It is also known as Shiraz, but should not be confused with Petit Sirah, which was developed by crossing Syrah with Peloursin.
