Domaine Barou
St. Joseph Syrah
St. Joseph, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
2010, Domaine Barou, Saint Joseph, 100% Syrah. Wow, total spice bomb; which I love. Well balanced (13% ABV) with layers of aromas and flavors. Mainly blackberry and plum but they tke a backseat to the spices. Tons of black pepper and then finishes with smoke, incense and chocolate. I want more but it is hard to find.

An opaque ruby, the '09 Domaine Barou Saint-Joseph displays the classic bouquet of Syrah, namely, cassis, violet, licorice and grilled meat. The mouth detects sweet flavors of peppery black fruit and bitter chocolate, with a decent finish of respectable length.
