Errazuriz Max Reserva Syrah (Shiraz) 2000

Valle de Aconcagua, Region de Aconcagua, ChileThe Errazuriz syrah continues to improve with the '02 looking like the best yet. Expect an open, smoky peppery blackberry fruit nose with a bit of that gamy garrigue scent for complexity. There's plenty of ripe "sweet," stylish, boysenberry jam fruit here that is riper and rounder than either cabernet or merlot in the same range. Smoky jasmine tea flavours mark the tasty finish. Like a baby Côte Rôtie.Tasted: 14 July 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
