Creekside UnBroken Press Reserve Syrah 2012
Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaHefty in bottle, form and palate, this is a full bodied, dense and powerful syrah from St. David's Bench. Four percent viognier lends a whisper of softness to this firm blend, still fist-clenched even five years along. There's an iron ring around the edges, housing severe black fruit, pitch, charcoal and thorns, with furry tannins and a slight fade to the peppercorn finish. Nine barrels were made, one new Hungarian wood and eight older French. Drink now, after a decant, and with roast beef and jus.Tasted: 19 November 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $43.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
