Blind tasted and said it smelled French but tasted Italian. Yup, Valle d'Aosta.

100% Valle d’Aosta Syrah. Bright ruby color with a garnet rim. Aromas and flavors of cherry, bramble berries, black pepper, baking spices and black licorice. Bright and complex. Relatively soft texture and tannin for a Syrah but the high elevation vineyards should explain that. Kind of “Syrah-lite,” but in a good way. Handles a bit of a chill. Good red choice in the Summer months. Thank you for sharing, Ron B!

В аромате тона перца превалируют, зеленые ноты ягод, немного недозрелая слива, черника.
Во вкусе мягкое и деликатное в самом начале, затем сочность и сладость фруктов сменяется пикантными перечными тонами, првностями и свежестью с шершавыми еще танинами.
Вино еще зеленое, можно подержать 2-3 года для смягчения танин и кислотности.
