Thursday, March 28, 2024 - WCC Syrah from around the world tasting (Clifton Park, NY): Powerhouse of a wine. First impressions are impressive with soaring aromatics - intense black fruited and meaty notes dominate here, though there's a surprisingly sweet floral note (honeysuckle?) that has me wondering if there's some Viognier in this blend as well. There's similar power and intensity of flavour on the palate, and surprising acidity giving it more lift than I'd expect for such a big wine - but the alcohol does stick out on the back end and mars this a bit.
