Great value. Satisfying ripe bramble fruit, fresh cherries with good body and subtle pepper.

Huge improvement over the last vintage. This has an amazing aroma and the syrah really sings here. Black peppercorn and gaminess comes through with some understated fruit on a medium body. Huge value for Syrah. Not as juicey as some of the other southern french wines, but that's a good thing.
