Note di degustazione
Dark purple. Highly fragrant aromas of ripe black and blue fruits, with olive, cola and vanilla nuances in the background. Smooth, sweet and expansive on the palate, offering juicy boysenberry, cassis and fruitcake flavors enlivened by zesty acidity and a jolt of cracked pepper. The blue fruit note carries emphatically through a very long, spicy finish framed by velvety tannins.

Another serious and age-worthy Syrah from this estate that will demand patience is the 2013 Hermitage. Coming from the more sandy, calcareous and limestone parts of Hermitage hill, it spent 24 months in barrel before being bottled. Olive tapenade, smoked earth, black currants and hints of beef blood flow nicely to a medium to full-bodied, balanced, yet concentrated and structured Hermitage that will benefit from 5-6 years of cellaring; it will have two or more decades of overall longevity.
