This wine is a celebration blend of the best barrels of our estate-grown Syrah, from an iconic vintage. Indulge in a triumphant orchestra of bold yet elegant flavours of blackberries, black cherries, star anise and plums. Supported by soft hints of ground coffee, toasty oak, dusty cocoa and black pepper, this wine delivers an unforgettable experience with a long finish that will leave your palate begging for another sip.
This bold and spicy wine will be a great match to any gamy meat, like wild boar sausage and bison burgers. It will be an outstanding companion to a rack of lamb or grilled duck breast, but also will elevate any hearty vegetarian dish as well.
Critic's Rating
Connoisseur Note(s):
****+ - Texturally this is a full bodied Syrah - but it still manages to be elegant (... for a hot vintage). If I were tasting this blind I might guess this is a well made Australian Shiraz from McLaren Vale. Aromas are plum, cassis, and dark cherry. There are whispers of spice on the nose and on the finish. The fruit flavours explode on the palate unapologetically announcing the wonderful hot summer that brought this wine to be. Drink now with light decanting or cellar until 2033. — André Proulx, andrewinereview.ca
