Le Vieux Pin Syrah Cuvée Classique 2012
Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis is one of a trio of syrah that Le Vieux Pin produces in their quest to explore all personalities of the grape in the southern Okanagan. In the Cuvée Classique, 100 percent syrah from North Oliver reflects the savoury, brooding face. Perfumed black florals, bacon fat, cracked clove and pepper aromas. The layered palate is fresh with wild blackberries, herbal cassis, black cherry and cracked black pepper. Firm tannins frame this structured wine, but the sun ripened fruit cushion complements it seamlessly. Lingering salted sage and smoky bacon begs pairing with grilled lamb now, or cellar for 3-5 years.Tasted: 12 January 2015Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $50.00 | 750ml | winery direct, private and VQA wine shops |
