Robust aromas of plum and black currant carry over onto the palate alongside pepper, baking spices and clove. Heavy weight with well integrated tannins. Really nice acidic structure and long fruit forward finish.
This is a wine currently crafted by the Syriac monks in Eastern Turkey who use very traditional methods during production, though wine has been made by these people since Assyrian times.
Apparently the label is a photo of ruins from a 4th Century Church in the ancient Assyrian village of Bethkustan.
