NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
K Vintners The Hustler Syrah is striking in the glass, with a deep, inky purple color that is almost opaque, hinting at the wine's concentration and intensity.The nose is a complex and inviting blend of dark fruits like blackberries and plums, layered with smoky notes, black pepper, and a hint of meatiness, a signature of well-crafted Syrah. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and rich, enveloping the mouth with a velvety texture and a powerful mix of flavors: dark chocolate, espresso, and savory herbs, alongside the lush fruit. The tannins are firm but well-integrated, adding structure and depth, and leading to a long, lingering finish that continues to evolve with each sip. The Hustler is a bold, assertive wine, showcasing the best of what Washington Syrah can offer.
