An engaging and silky Syrah from Levantine Hill, give it some time to find its groove and you are in for a treat.
Such is the pleasure and joy that this brings, it's clear that significant effort has gone into its construction. Its presence, supple feels and elongated finish all contribute to a wine of class and prestige.
Dark berries, mulberry compote, plums and baked blueberries make an early statement as they glide through effortlessly. Fine spices and subtle pepper frame the palate with smoked meat, dark chocolate and a delicate earthiness. Mocha tries to wriggle its way forward late adding further intrigue and pleasure. Give it a decant, sip slow and peel back the interest. It's a beautiful conversational wine.
