2012 Sugarloaf Syrah

Tasting Notes

Rich aromas of ripe blackberries, black pepper, lavender and tobacco leaves lead a bursting of juicy blackberries and velvety tannins on the palate. Hints of cassis and pepper on the finish linger in balance with the mouthwatering fruit and minerality. The deeply expressive Sugarloaf vineyard has produced yet another age-worthy Syrah to enjoy for years to come.
