Errazuriz Max Reserva Syrah 2014

Valle de Aconcagua, Region de Aconcagua, ChileGrapes predominantly from the Max vineyards in the Aconcagua Valley are sprinkled with grapes from the cooler climate coastal Manzanar vineyard, resulting in this powerful, yet fresh, full-bodied syrah. Ripe and sun-sweetened black plum and medicinal cassis is textured with ample fragrant baking spices and studded cloves. Tannins are ripe and smoothed, with just enough toasty grip to remind you of the twelve months in French oak (20 percent new). Medicinal dark fruits and dusty dark cocoa powder linger on the finish of this youthful wine, one that packs a lot for its price. A fitting pour with braised lamb shank.Tasted: 25 February 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
