This is a surprisingly good expression of Syrah. Fruit driven but with a peppery earthy kick, obtained as part of a supermarket Christmas giveaway, excellent QPR. Would recommend.

Lovely on the nose, toasty and rounded with a fine mousse. All lemon on the palate, not unpleasantly so, but I do feel as though a year or two may help resolve the citrus acid bombiness.

A hint of petrol on the nose, turning to cut grass. A huge hit of mango on the palette. Sugar seems high for a spatlese, more like an entry auslese.kept in check perfectly by the acidity. A beautifully well made wine, with many years ahead.
