Note di degustazione
Instantly impressive in the glass, the 2019 Syrah Foothills Reserve captivates from the first pour, unveiling expressive notes of red and green peppercorns intertwined with sappy cherry essence and hints of fresh herbs and turned earth. Medium to full-bodied, the palate boasts precision, spiciness and freshness, practically calling out to be paired with fire-roasted meats and wild game. With a well-balanced structure on the mid-palate, the wine features fine-grained tannins and succulent acidity, gracefully leading to a long, lingering and ever-evolving finish. This stunning Syrah promises to age gracefully until its 20th birthday, although resisting temptation may prove challenging. Bravo.

From the same vineyard (Foothills in the Sun), the 2019 Syrah Foothills Reserve is 100% Syrah and sports a slightly deeper ruby/plum color as well as a more funky, meaty, nutty style in its ripe red and black fruits as well as notes of cured meats, chocolate, cedar, and spring flowers. It too shows the fresher, elegant style of the vintage yet has plenty of intensity, medium to full body, ripe tannins, and a great finish. Drink this complex, complete, impressive Syrah over the coming 10-12+ years.
