Bodega Lurton Syrah 2001
Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaAfter so much success with Argentinean bonarda, sangiovese and chenin blanc you had to expect the globetrotting brothers Lurton would entertain the notion of making a Mendoza syrah. The Lurton 2001 Syrah grown in the Uco Valley is similar in style to the Flichman but there's more acidity here and a leaner (French if you like) structure. If you like your reds firm and dry this is a solid everyday label at an affordable price.Tasted: 01 March 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $11.95 | 750ml |
