Here Be Dragons Tormentoso Coastal Syrah Mourvèdre
Coastal Region, Western Cape, South Africa
91++Everything about this wine screams Great QPR!!!! Balanced dark currants, tertiary tannins, a little cherry pipe tobacco. An affordably decent red wine to have on ✋

This is a Syrah-Mourvèdre blend. Lovely lighter color. Like rose hips and rust meet blood. Dusky-dusty aromas. Some ink well as well. Flavors are nice. Smooth and easy. Balance is good. Not as chewy and dense as I like my Syrah, but it’s elegant and citrus-y in a blood oranges and sangria sorta way. Plenty of spice box and tart red berry syrup too. This is a nice wine. One of the better I’ve had from South Africa. Much more reserved than most of them.

Acceptable at the sale price, but I won’t buy more. Better Mourvèdre in the cellar.
