Always so pleasant to taste this beautiful Syrah from Morocco, both strong and very well balanced with these flowery aromas of violet and pepper. Cool to 15 degrees to balance the slightly marked alcoholic power.
Toujours aussi agréable de goûter cette belle Syrah du Maroc, à la fois costaud et très bien équilibré avec ces arômes fleuris de violette et poivre. Rafraîchir à 15 degrés pour équilibrer la puissance alcoolique un peu marquée. — 4 years ago
Pale straw yellow color. Can tell this will have a good amount of salt based off of the brine aromas that waft immediately out of the glass in tandem with melon, lemon zest, and some tropical notes. Tangerine, grapefruit and pear skin flavors with a silky feel. A lot of nice saline structure and good mineral vibes. It’s refreshing too. Love the puckering acidity it leaves behind. — 2 years ago
Meant to drink this earlier than 8 years out, but gratified that the fruit and other elements were still there and working in tandem. — 4 years ago
The label took a hit over the years and the vintage is unreadable but I think it was pre 2010. Bright ruby in color. Highly perfumed with wild flowers, ripe raspberry and potpourri. The mouthfeel is soft and bright with tones of black cherry, cola and a touch of mint. The medium long finish was vibrant and juicy. Very California in style. — 5 years ago
Delicious with an aftertaste of plum. Fun night with Michael and Mackensie. Mackensie bought from Tandem. — 3 years ago
This is much better on night 2. It is a style that is mid-way between purposefully underripe Aussie Semillon and riper, waxy, honeyed interpretations. Nose has tart kumquat in tandem with a Semillon waxy, lanolin thing, but toned down. In the mouth, it juxtaposes the dark, low toned character of Semillon with good acids and freshness. Very nice. — 4 years ago
