Elegant and charming side of Syrah. Cracked pepper, smoked meat and red plum. Will age gracefully another decade.

Cured meat, Brett (BandAid here), green peppercorn (10X on the palate), rosemary, juniper, crushed wet stone, juicy cranberry, blackberry, and black plum. A whiff of round creaminess presumably from that 5% Viognier went away swiftly. Little staining, low viscosity (12.5%). Medium acidity and soft tannins. Destemmed, 20% new barrel.
