Cuvée Alexandre Apalta Vineyard Syrah
Black and blueberry jam, herbs, chocolate, JAMMY, a hint of oak and spice, a little sweet for me but Mari loves it.

Nov 11th, 2015Tons of sediment, so give this a decant. It was open right away and very tasty, but better on day 3. Inky with lots of dark blue fruit. Some seasoned oak on the nose. Still good tannic structure, but not grippy in any way. The acidity is still there, but toned down. Dark blue fruit transfers to the palate. Wish I had more.

Jan 27th, 2017Yummy full bodied Syrah with loads of dark fruit- blackberry plum cassis- a touch of spice and oak. Fruity and rich but not sweet.
