Phantom Creek Estates Kobau Vineyard Syrah 2022

Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaKobau Syrah comes from a 4.5 acre block on the west side of the Okanagan Valley's Golden Mile Bench. Morning sun and cooler late afternoons and evenings protect the fruit from intense late day heat, preserving balance and freshness. The '22 is pure and poised, combining concentrated blackberry and blueberry with spiced plum, florals, and white pepper. The palate delivers a rush of savoury notes, mixed with meaty, black olive and glossy blue fruit brushed with 19 months of French oak ageing and a warm finish. It will age effortlessly through 2032.Tasted: 20 August 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
