Type: Table Variety: Syrah
The 2002 Syrah Astralis Vineyard rivals the greatest wines Roman Bratasiuk has made in his 15-year career. This compelling, black/blue-hued o!ering from 75-year-old Syrah vines tastes like blood of the vine. An extraordinary perfume of "owers, creme de cassis, blackberries, roasted meat, new saddle leather, and earth is followed by a wine with sweet tannin, sensational concentration, full body, an unctuous texture, and a full-throttle, tannic #nish. Yet it reveals unbelievable elegance and #nesse.
