Smoke cigar ash in tendons that mute any recognition of bright fruit - Backward and out of place

2012 - 15.5/20 (87/100) слива, черные ягоды, чисто, аккуратно, фруктово. Плотные танины, хороший баланс, долгое послевкусие.

Dark ruby color. Aromas and flavors of ripe red and black berries, white pepper, dark chocolate and tobacco. Hint of baking spices on the finish. Interesting wine but does not smell or taste like prototypical Syrah to me. Thanks for opening this one, Kase!

A nice fresh Italian syrah. BlackBerry, plum, tobacco, and dried herbs. Good value for $16.

Ok so this wine had a more of a fruit forward taste but should be noted minerals were light.
The restaurant though in Tribeca... Go!
