A very serious pucker factor from tannin. Tannin really helps because it gives the wine a more rustic characteristic that pushes aside the “industrial, made to appeal to sweet wine drinkers” hit that I detected on initial entry. On OK wine, but I won’t be rushing back for more.

December 3, 2015 - Tasted at winery. Great surprise and was the best of their offerings. This Syrah is rich, great depth, with fine tannins that are still very strong and will carry this wine 10 years. Delicious blue and black fruit and some savory garrigue to go with earthy smoked meat flavors and pepper. Drink now-2025
