RATINGS

97+ Jeb Dunnuck

Straight-up thrilling notes of blackberries, raspberries, iron, smoked meat, flowers, and crushed stone all emerge from the glass, and this is another rich, concentrated... Showing more violet, flowers, and pepper with time in the glass, it has incredible tannins, flawless balance, and a great finish.

95The Wine Advocate

...explodes on the nose with licorice, chargrill, warm blackcurrants, coffee beans and smoked meats...palate is firm and packs a punch with its powerful, savory fruits, a touch of chew and bright freshness, finishing long and lifted.

95+ Vinous / IWC

Black fruit, gravel, spice, leather and espresso give this potent, virile Syrah tons of flavor complexity.

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.
