Note di degustazione
Shimmering purple. Mineral- and spice-accented black raspberry, boysenberry and candied violet on the highly perfumed nose. Shows superb depth as well as energy to the alluringly sweet red and blue fruit preserve, vanilla, fruitcake and candied violet flavors, which are complemented by smoky bacon and cracked pepper flourishes. Finishes smoky, broad and extremely long, displaying repeating florality and youthful tannic grip. Two-thirds new French oak.

The 2017 Fracture 22 (aged 22 months) has a deep ruby-purple color and is youthfully slow to open. With time, luscious scents of milk chocolate, crème de cassis, mint leaves, peppered meats, blueberry coulis, crushed black cherries and a classy vein of sweet spice emerge. It's full-bodied, silky and rich, slowly blossoming in the mouth, firmly framed and with great freshness on the long, layered finish. Give this another few years in bottle.
The extended aged version of the Fracture is the 2017 Fracture 22, which spent close to two years in barrel. It's another thrilling wine, offering a brilliant display of pure crème de cassis intermixed with notions of Asian spices, toasted bread, vanilla bean, liquid violets, and charred meats. Full-bodied, incredibly pure, and concentrated, with subtle oak, it's an incredible, singular Syrah from this great estate that's a straight-up sexy and as seamless as they come.
