T.H. (Terroir Hunter) Maipo Syrah
Maipo Valley, Central Valley, Chile
This was at my uncle's house in Nicaragua. I never knew South America had Syrah. 2120 cases made. 2011. The cork was so tight I almost injured myself. What a delight and escape from the widespread deployment of malbec.
The nose on this shocked me dark cherries with licorice. This follows in the mouth. Nice roundness with a slight acidic finish (note that I didn't decant). Excellent.
