8th Generation Vineyard Syrah 2016

Okanagan Falls, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis opens with a savoury, smoky, deli meats nose mixed with peppercorns and a fresh floral underscore. This is cool Summerland syrah, offering up more meaty notes and earthy, savoury, roasted root veg before a slightly skinny, juicy finish at a very modest 12.5 percent alcohol. It spends year in French oak which is plenty given how light the fruit is. This is a fun syrah, ready to drink and not too overpowering, but one that could be amped up a bit with riper fruit.
