Amalie Robert 2011 Top Barrel Syrah (Willamette Valley)

Country: US / Top Barrel
Variety: Syrah Oregon
Winery: Amalie Robert / Willamette Valley

Firm and tart, this is a rather light, earthy, herbal take on the grape. Its blueberry and blue plum suggestions are bound in an unyielding frame, with a whiff of rubber ball on the nose.
