“(no new oak): Glass-staining purple. Deep, pungent scents of cassis, black olive, violet and smoky minerals. Classic syrah, offering sweet dark berry and spicecake flavors, with a smoky undertone and late notes of candied flowers and black pepper. Precise and spicy on the finish, which leaves bitter berry skin and cracked pepper notes behind.”
