Dark ruby. Ripe black and blue fruits on the spice-accented nose, along with a floral nuance and a hint of cola. Plush and open-knit, offering appealingly sweet blackberry, cherry and candied licorice flavors and a touch of smokiness. Discreet tannins come in late on a persistent finish that echoes the cherry note. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, September 2022)

I picked this Yarra Valley Syrah for last month's #thetcwineclub box

Tyler Stephens

Nose is great smells of balanced dark fruit and then.. woah. Highly sweet and tart with a lip smack of confusion. Not expecting that sweetness.

Peter James

#leoncircle pick. Not my favorite (notes of leather and mushroom), but I learned to come around to it.

Michael Ochsner

Cool and unusual. Great structure for what it is. I $13.50

Josh Claxton

A bit of that black pepper, but much more bright fruit and floral aspects to the nose with cherry and dried flowers pushing through to the forefront. Super plush texturally without feeling too loose...a surprising amount of depth to this wine. I generally like my Syrah to have a more rigid backbone but this is beautiful and delicious for the money.

Benjamin Hickey

Nice and bright fruit on the spice darker fruit spectrum.
