Painted Rock Syrah 2022

Skaha Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe thing about a top vintage like 2022 is the level some of the best sites can reach, which is not always attainable in lesser vintages. This is a very fine Painted Rock Syrah, from its sophisticated bouquet of plums and earth to its Rhône-esque, savoury, mineral, licorice, cracked pepper palate. Sleek and silky, it has all the earmarks of a wine you can cellar for more than a decade, yet its balance suggests you can enjoy it now. Fragrant and generous, all in a restrained manner. Stock up if you have a cellar.Tasted: 21 May 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
