Vintage Notes

Plush plum, racy raspberry and blackberry fruit is showcased in this stunning Syrah.  Discreet, spicy wood notes add complexity and intrigue.  Solid acidity enlivens the lengthy finish.  As a young, fruit-focused wine, it is an excellent match for barbequed ribs and other grilled foods.
