Screaming Frenzy Shiraz 2016
Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe kangaroo on the front label is a crucial clue as to the style of this syrah, that is more shiraz than syrah. On the nose and palate it is big, rich, round, fat and warm; it spills across all your month like a runaway train. The fruit is a 50/50 of two cru vineyards located in Osoyoos: Monarch Vineyard, and Hans Estate. The wine has spent a couple of years in a mix of mostly new American oak, and it is popping out of the glass. The spice is off the charts, the dark fruit brooding and rambunctious. You can drink it now if you are brave enough, or let it steep a bit in the bottle through 2023.
