"Saturated ruby. Textbook syrah aromas of black and blue fruits, cracked pepper, olive and violet, with a smoky overtone and a hint of black tea. Deeply concentrated and chewy in texture, offering powerful cassis and blueberry flavors and a touch of bitter chocolate. The smoky note returns on the long, sappy, emphatically spicy finish. Showing a lot of complexity now but this will reward more patience."
