Nichol Vineyard Syrah 2000
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaLight cherry colour. Earthy, gamey, rubbery notes mix with peppery, weedy cherry fruit. Very soft, round and smooth on entry with spicy, savoury, sour cherry and summer sausage flavours. The finish is thin and acidic. Disappointing considering earlier editions.Tasted: 13 May 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | Winery Only |
