Written Notes

A 100% Syrah from the Apalta Valley with an excellent, deep purple colour, violet hue and black core. Enormously dense, intense nose with dark stone fruit, black cherries and ripe plums, elder berries, hints of blackberries complemented by very spicy components, white pepper, vanilla, tobacco and hints of toasting aroma, very meaty, raw meat and a discreet earthiness and a slightly floral touch in the background. On the palate rich and opulent with intense yet mature tannins, rich taste with dark berries and stone fruits, hints of leather and fine toasting, excellent depth and length.
