Domaine Monier Perréol
Saint-Joseph Syrah
St. Joseph, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Amazing concentration of brambly fruit, but this has the acidity to keep it from feeling jammy or overextracted. Black and blue fruits on the nose and palate with a compelling violet/floral element on the finish. Personaly I could would have welcomed a bit more olive/smoked meat on the this wine but that might present itself with more bottle age. There was just the hint of olive tapenade lingering in the background. This wine is drinking beautifully right now but I think would reward you with more complexity after 5-10 years of bottle age.

Very fruit forward, but enough of a backbone to balance it out.
