Finely ground white pepper swings alongside dried sour cherry and black olive tapenade on the fragrant nose. The palate reverberates with freshness that seems to underline the ripe sour and sweet cherry even more. That peppery spiciness remains an enlivening feature throughout, shimmering alongside that central vein of acidic brightness. A compelling, visceral Syrah that will be long-lived. Drink by 2045.
