Note di degustazione
The 2012 Bossman (Syrah) presents a cooler-climate style of Syrah typical of Bien Nacido. The inclusion of 7% Viognier also gives the flavors a kick of additional freshness. Graphite, violet, lavender, menthol, savory herbs and melted road tar are some of the many notes that wrap around a core of inky blue/purplish fruit. Succulent, racy and intense, the 2012 Bossman captures the essence of the Sanguis house style.

Another wine that's showing plenty of oak, the 2012 Syrah Bossman incorporates 7% Viognier and saw 26 months in 70% new French oak. Elegant, medium to full-bodied, and balanced, with terrific purity of fruit, it gives up terrific notes of creme de cassis, graphite, licorice and toasted spice on the nose. While it doesn't have a massive mid-palate, it has enough tannic bite to benefit from short term cellaring and should have at least a decade of overall longevity.
