Borgo Cortona Syrah
Cortona, Arezzo, Tuscany, Italy
What a strange syrah from a wonderful town. Wooly Bully tannins! Dark cherry cola gives way to chocolate, nutmeg, maybe plum, and a bunch of barnyard funk. It's awesome!

Cortona- what a fun place! Didn’t realize there was Syrah coming out of there. You would know this is Tuscan if I blindfolded you... plenty of barnyard funk, dark cherry, and a little velvety chocolate on the nose. It presents itself on the tongue like highly carbonated cola, then dissipates and gives way to plum, chocolate, nutmeg, and great wooly bully tannins. Salut!
