Pentâge Winery Syrah 2013

90POINTS

16^½/20

Skaha Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSkaha-based Pentâge Winery has done the aging for us, holding this structural, brooding, peppery 2013 syrah back until now when it is a welcome current release. Meaty and savoury, with cracked peppercorn, charcuterie, wild cassis, lifted blueberry, a hint of scrub, all riding a swell of acidity (at the limit) right through the lingering finish. Tannins are age-appropriately worn, straddling the youthful wood-grip stage. Yet another individual reason why syrah is a star of BC.Tasted: 19 November 2017Tasted by: Treve Ring & Anthony GismondiPrices:
