RATINGS

93Robert M. Parker Jr.

The wine displays exceptional flavor concentration, great stature and richness, beautifully integrated acidity, and ripe tannin. This full-bodied, massive, exquisitely balanced Syrah is capable of 20-25 years of evolution.

91Stephen Tanzer

Perfumed, very complex aromas of blueberry, black cherry and raw meat, with complicating notes of flowers, gunflint and stewed red fruit. Gives an impression of higher acidity in the mouth, but the penetrating peppery quality is compelling.

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.
