Aged in oak barrels for 16 months, this Syrah opens with aromas of smoked brisket, black olive, blueberry compote and black cherry. The wine has flavors of black cherry, mocha, black olive and suggestions of meat. Deep and delicious, this hard to resist, terroir driven old world Syrah shows the potential of this varietal in the Douro. (Best 2016-2024) - October, 2016 (OB)
