The 2018 High Contrast Vineyard Syrah is another sensational wine in the Horsepower lineup this year. It instantly begins to impress as it reveals gorgeous aromas of black raspberries and plums, which sit alongside exotic spices, smoke, cured meats, bacon fat, black olives, herbs and lavender, which are completely captivating in the glass. On the palate this is just as impressive, as it possesses a gorgeous sleek, silky texture with beautiful soft, round tannins and remarkable overall balance. It glides effortlessly across the palate into the long, totally seamless finish. This is a fabulous Syrah which is drinking remarkably well upon release, and should also go on to age tremendously well for years to come.
