Estimate
Snappy black-raspberry and boysenberry aromas are dusted in light licorice, black-pepper and pie-crust tones on the nose of this bottling. The palate is extremely complex, with a baked fruit core that's lifted by thyme and pepper, as acidity and herbs cut through the richness.
...blueberry and blackberry fruits as well as spring flowers, violets, and orange blossom-like aromas and flavors...spicy, complex, peppery, medium to full-bodied Syrah has terrific balance, lots of ripe tannins, and outstanding length.
...laced with sweet tobacco, cedar, mint, dried flowers, licorice and dried herbs...destemmed fruit, and yet it shows very pretty savory notes.
...aromas of cassis, dried herbs, licorice and earth, plus wafts of baking spice...palate is medium-bodied, soft, juicy and approachable, with fruit-driven character and sweet spices lingering on the finish.
