Richer and riper than the 2011 last night, beautiful blackberry fruit, very good acid balance, long finish, another excellent Swan Estate Syrah!!

Jul 25th, 2022Stopped by Joseph Swan for a quick tasting flight this afternoon, this wasn’t on the flight but since the 2013 Syrah was so fabulous, picked up a bottle of the 2011 to pair with some great cheese we bought, this shows inky color, mostly black fruits, complexity yet still so very young, medium-long finish, 11 years old going on 3, needs more aging!!
