Syrah
Critic's Rating 92 pts
The south facing slopes of Kacaba's Proprietors Block capture the full days sun and produce award quality fruit used to create this estate syrah. Aromatics of white pepper, black fruit and cigar box prevail on the nose. The palate is rich with jammy notes of strawberry and blackberry accented by spicy notes of licorice, clove, leather, and smoke.
