NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
he Syrah grapes are sourced from granite-rich plots, emphasizing their structured and expressive nature.On the nose, subtle aromas of cocoa beans and white pepper intertwine, complemented by a surprising hint of vanilla in the finish, a signature of the variety in this terroir. The palate is full-bodied, with firm tannins that promise graceful evolution over time.
