Arboleda Syrah 2000
Valle del Colchagua, Valle del Rapel, Region del Valle Central, ChileThe 2000 Arboleda syrah is only the second syrah crop picked at La Arboleda. It makes up 85 per cent of the blend with an additional 15 per cent Maipo cabernet for weight. Look for intense spicy peppery notes of black cherry and cassis with lots of smoky vanilla and oak. The flavours are similarly intense with quite a whack of oak and black cherries showing at present. That said it tends to be more Euro in style with beautiful rich dark berry fruit characters. It should fly off the shelves in April.Tasted: 15 November 2002Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $24.95 | 750ml | BC Private Wine Shops |
