Loma Larga Syrah 2010
Valle de Casablanca, Region de Aconcagua, ChileThe top syrah has a strong cool climate streak to match its deep purple colour. It comes from two single plots of the estate. The nose is rich and intense with liquorice, coffee, smoky black plum jam aromas. The attack is round, the fruit is juicy with light tannins and excellent finesse. A very polished powerful red that stays within itself offering delicious meaty, plummy, peppery fruit. Again it's the balance and elegance that surprises. You can drink this now with grilled lamb but it will easily age a decade.Tasted: 17 December 2014Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:ON | $30.00 | 750ml | Vintages |
