A pleasant drinking Ontario Syrah made in the classic Rhone style & it’s great deal at the clearance price if you can find it
Tasting Note: Light+ ruby colour with good acidity, a medium+ intense nose, medium to mild tannin & a fairly long length on the finish. Wine features cherry, mulberry, plum, clove, white & black peppers and a slight smokiness on the nose.
Negatives: None
Interesting Point: For some reason if you buy it at the winery, the cost is $30.15?!
Pairings: Drink now or over the next 3-5 years on its own or pair it with braised beef short-ribs.
My Opinion: Recommended
