2008 Small Lot Syrah
Limited Quantity - Library Wine
16 In Stock
This was winemaker Michael Alexander's top pick from our Library tasting. The wine is in its prime, still showing youthful fruit with the texture and complexity that can only be gained from maturity.
Original tasting note:
Rich and Red!
Pepper, Spice, mocha, and blueberry aromas, and then blackberry, mocha and blueberry on the palate.
Experience beautifully balanced fruit and soft tannins followed by a long finish and great mouth feel.

tasting took place late September 2010 and was truly the surprise of the evening of other varietals tasted with high expectations.... this is the allure of Syrahs, they are subtle yet bold, delicious yet improve as they open and while they share many of the possibilities of their cousins they are unique when savoured and paired well with food as found at the Bistro at Summerhill! A definite recommended buy ! And for those needing "points" to urge them I give this one 91 points ! and a bargain at this price... dont wait.
