Medium bodied, the savoury palate possesses ripe cherry and red liquorice flavours with an underlying meatiness, traces of clove and pepper.

Other Reviews….
Ripe blackberries with pepper and smoky nuances make this medium-to full-bodied Chilean syrah appealing. The balance of bright fruit, spice and healthy dry tannins gives the palate some excitement and the finish is powerful yet fresh. Drink or hold.
