Its deep ruby/purple color is followed by notions of graphite, garrigue, smoke, roasted meats, and blackberries. Although made from young vines, this rich, full-bodied complex Syrah is already impressively endowed. Enjoy it over the next 5-6 years.

Saturated ruby. Intense, liqueur-like raspberry on the nose, with a luscious floral accent. Supple and sweet, with no apparent tannins and a gentle mineral lift on the finish. Very elegant, fine-grained syrah, with impressively pure fruit expression.
