BW SYRAH SCM NELSON VYD 2018
Tasting Notes
This unrefined, unfiltered 2018 Santa Cruz Mountains Syrah is beautifully purple and inky in color. It opens with aromas of black pepper, black licorice, and floral potpourri. More subtle aromas of blueberry, blackberry, and baking spice follow as the wine opens up. On the palate dark fruit and peppery spice flavors are married nicely with sweet and toasty oak. Mouthfeel is plush and luxurious with soft tannins, balanced acidity, and a lingering finish.
