Rust Wine Co Lost Horn Vineyard Syrah 2020
Okanagan Falls, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Rust Syrah story is a four part tale featuring wines from four sites. They are all made from Clone 877, and the wine growing and winemaking is identical, leading one to interpret the site for any noticeable changes in the finished wine. The Lost Horn Vineyards Syrah hails from Okanagan Falls, bringing quite a bit of power thanks to its clay loam soils and ungrafted vines planted in 2016. The nose is tight and youthful, pitching mostly spice. On the palate, the predominant flavours are earth and spice with cedar highlights and streaks of black cherry, espresso and a touch of cola. Still slumbering, this will need a grilled piece of lamb to tame its more rustic edges. Cellar for three to five years for best results. A little more charm would go a long way here.Tasted: 17 March 2023Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $44.00 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops |
