Note di degustazione
The 2016 Syrah Headpruned Block is a big, meaty, rocking Syrah that's loaded with notions of blackcurrants, gamey meats, tapenade, and leafy, peppery herbs. Deep, rich, and unctuous, with beautiful purity and a mouthfilling style, it delivers serious pleasure yet stays balanced, pure and lively on the palate. Winemaker Jake Bilbro has produced a bevy of brilliant Zinfandels that show the balance and elegance that’s the hallmark of the great 2016 vintage.

The deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Syrah Head Pruned Block (100% Syrah) comes bounding out of the glass like an energetic puppy, sporting loads of crushed blueberries and black raspberries notes with touches of violets, black pepper and black olives with a waft of fried herbs. Full-bodied and packing bags of pepper-laced black fruit preserves, it has a firm frame of rounded tannins and background freshness, finishing long. 212 cases produced.
The 2016 Syrah Headpruned D Block emerges from a single acre of Syrah on the property. Sumptuous, rich and explosive, with soaring aromatics and tremendous intensity, the 2016 has so much to offer. Readers will have to be patient, as the 2016 is going to need a number of years to be at its very best. Inky red/purplish berry fruit, grilled herbs, chocolate and menthol build into the huge finish in this bold, virile Syrah from Limerick Lane.
