Township 7 Benchmark Series Syrah Fool's Gold Vineyard 2018
Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaTime has added additional smoky campfire hints to the earlier mix, although it is still a high acid, aromatic syrah with a smoky, peppery undercarriage. The smoky notes will keep it from achieving any higher status at this point. The attack remains savoury, while the tannins are relatively soft, making it easy to drink now, which I recommend. Serve with grilled lamb or pork to tame the acidity and smoke.Tasted: 05 January 2022Tasted by: Prices:
Township 7 Benchmark Series Syrah Fool's Gold Vineyard 2018
Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, Canada2018 is a mix of super fresh, high acid, aromatic syrah with a smoky, peppery undercarriage. The attack is savoury with a tight palate of red fruits with medium-rich tannins and a campfire finish. This Oliver based wine lacks some mid-palate weighty fruit that made 2017 so attractive. Best to give this some time in bottle to pull it all together and perhaps put on a bit of weight. Be patient.Tasted: 15 December 2020Tasted by: Prices:
