Domaine des Ouled Thaleb
Syrah
It’s a dark wine, almost inky, with a fantastically funky nose. The dark fruit sort of waves as it goes by, while the smell of meat just stands there and stares at you. There is a hint of pepper, a dash of mint, but that smoky, meaty smell really dominates. On the palate, a dark, brooding plum and blackberry combination put up a little more of a fight against the earthy, meaty flavors. It’s really a great tasting wine.

Very bright. Needs air time, then gets beautiful.

Really well made and promising. A perfect introduction for a skeptic of African wine.
