NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Amphora Mounts Vineyard Syrah is an inviting and complex red wine.On the nose, it reveals aromas of dark fruit, licorice, smoke, and a hint of pepper spice. On the palate, the lush and juicy fruit flavors of plum, blackberry, and blueberry mingle with notes of leather, dark chocolate, and a hint of espresso. The finish is lengthy and smooth with a nice balance of acidity, tannins, and oak. This is a well-crafted wine that will reward with age. Enjoy now with grilled steak or aged cheeses.
