Interesting, very Italian expression of Syrah. Super bright acid a little out of balance. Zesty almost citrusy aromas. Coulda been a little riper or cellared a lot longer.

Italy's take on a Cotes du Rhone, sappy and juicy fruits with some funk. Tell-tale Italian acidity, floral violets. Tannin a little chewy on the finish. Day 3 Coravin finally cracked through. Day 1 was showing nothing, day 2 so-so. In other words decant this a few hours

Dark red cherry, plum, smoke, tobacco and licorice notes are laced together in the 2011 Syrah Borgo. This supple, sexy Tuscan Syrah is best enjoyed over the next few years while the fruit retains its freshness and raciness. (AG)

ピチピチとした強さと若干のスパイス感。ガッチリパワフルだが、ハーブっぽさやタバコのニュアンスもあって、綺麗な酸や柔らかさもある。
物腰柔らかいながらもアツさのある兄ちゃん的なワイン。
