#AgedWineTuesday
Inky in color with a short reddish rim. Not showing much age.
Gorgeous nose of black fruits, cedar, vanilla, licorice, chocolates, cocoa, cola, light alcohol, tobacco leaf, light herbs, black pepper and Mediterranean spices.
Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, bitter herbs, spices, oak, vanilla, licorice, tobacco, earth, dark chocolates and black pepper.
Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.
This is a delicious 15 year old Syrah from Napa Valley. Elegant and robust. Rich and extracted.
Showing nice complexity at this point, and needs a couple of hours to open up properly.
A great sipping wine, that will also pair nicely with food.
A blend of 80% Syrah, 17% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon. 1,000 cases produced.
15.5% alcohol by volume.
93 points.
