Very light aroma of cherries? Light tannins raspberry on the side of the tongue after a few seconds then a quick fade. But a lingering flavor that grows as you taste more. Improves with decanting.

Dry with a bit of herbal, according to my husband. A little peppery and a nice fruity body...oh geez I'm not very good at describing wines.

Pretty good Syrah, especially at this bargain price, less than 15 bucks. But unfortunately doesn't gain after opening.

Nice blue fruit, brisk even at 14%, wood weights it down unnecessarily.
