Suvla SIR 2011

Gallipoli Peninsula (Marmara) (Thracian) Region, TurkeyA blend of syrah, merlot, grenache, cabernet franc and karasakiz, this is a perfumed and black fruited blend from Turkey's Gallipoli Peninsula. Full bodied and densely potent, wild blackberry, leather, ink, black cherry, cassis, pomegranate jam, tobacco and cinnamon weigh the palate, one supported by ripe, sticky tannins and finishing with a lingering saltiness. A fist of acidity keeps this interesting, especially when poured alongside Moroccan or Turkish lamb tagine or kebobs.Tasted: 24 March 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
