Note di degustazione
Healthy deep red. Complex aromas of blackberry, peppery herbs, spices, violet, charcuterie and olive tapenade; not particularly fruity but shows lovely treble notes and perfumed lift. Densely packed, suave and juicy; more concentrated than the Grenache, possessing a subtle dark berry sweetness to balance its saline tones. An alluring silky midweight with some punch. Finishes aromatic and long, with smooth tannins, subtle lingering perfume and a distinct airiness. I suspect this will open further with age, but it's already quite pliant.

With a beautifully perfumed nose, the 2017 Syrah la Paciencia Vineyard could easily be mistaken for a Côte-Rôtie. Bursting from the glass, aromas of smoked cherries, black pepper and dusty rose petals grace the nose, followed by a note of dried orange peel and elements of potpourri. Medium to full-bodied, the wine embodies focus and precision, with an impeccable balance across the mid-palate that bursts with freshness of fruit and a tightly wound structure, which will allow the wine to age beautifully for a couple of decades. The wine continues to evolve on the palate with a long-lingering finish. You will want to add one of these bottles to your cellar. Only 336 cases made.
Lastly, the 2017 Syrah La Paciencia Vineyard is just classic Rocks Syrah with its meaty, bloody blue fruits, ground black pepper, cured meats, violets, and spring flower aromas and flavors. Beautifully textured, concentrated, medium to full-bodied, and flawlessly balanced, it’s another incredible wine from this label that can be drunk any time over the coming 20 years or more.
