"Very dark, saturated black-hued purple-red colour, very youthful in appearance. The nose is elegantly concentrated with intense and penetrating, fragrant aromas of black and dark red berry fruits, firmly entwined with notes of black pepper, violet florals, piquant Asian spices and liquorice. Nuances of funky game and iron-earth add detail." Raymond Chan Wine Reviews

"The impenetrable, inky-dark colour saturation is the first thing that gets you with this wine, it's incredibly dense, dark, a stormcloud in a glass. Perfumed with blackcurrant, cherry and pepper-dusted damson plums, the nose is exciting, spice-driven and has smoke around the edges. Elegantly structured, the core of this wine is dark fruit, exotic spices and a seam of dark cocoa carries its savoury concentration through to the long, pillowy finish where earthy, graphite-like layers appear. It has freshness and verve, nice 'chew' and loads of chutzpah" Yvonne Lorkin

Premium single vineyard grapes from a great vintage have produced a lovely perfumed, dark concentrated wine. Seamless, with supple tannins this Syrah delivers a smooth and spicy finish.
