Nice structure and fairly good fruit for a Syrah. Nothing like Rhône

Wow! Fragrant and intense with lots of flavor - sour cherry and orange peel, followed by a peppery smokiness from the oak. Really good. Even better on day 2. 14.7 ABV.

Color of dark purple. Nose is nice and plenty, with dark fruits like cherry, white pepper, oak, crayon, and a touch of dried strawberry. Taste is similar with addition of polished tannins, grapefruit, a bit sweetness and subtle acidity, milk chocolate, and a bit smoke. Aftertaste sees the coming back of white pepper, grapefruit zest, soft tannins, and slow fade-away of the taste. Well done.
