Terra Bella 2009 Estate Syrah (Paso Robles)

Country: US / Estate
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Terra Bella / Paso Robles

This bottled-aged beauty, made by Syrah expert Andrew Murray, is redolent on the nose with lavender, violets, dense black fruit and a touch of tar. Great depth and structure show on the chewy palate, with black flavors of tar, espresso and nearly fudge complementing the rich yet tangy red-cherry fruit.
