Rich, full-bodied wine with a lush, fruit-forward profile that's bursting with juicy layers and textures. A true exceptional in the Syrah category, this wine is a must-try for those who appreciate a bold, fruit-filled experience. but it's certainly a pricey option, the quality and finesse on display make it well worth the investment.
