Description: |
|
The Syrah variety was first planted in
the Northern Rhône region by the Romans. It produces deeply pigmented,
well-structured wines with excellent ageing potential.
The glass was developed between 1993 and
1995 following tastings in the major Syrah-growing regions, with many
influential winemakers kindly contributing their views. It is shaped
to deliver the classic Syrah aromas of toast and black olives. On the
palate, it brings out the wine’s silky, velvety structure and balanced
flavours. The tannins melt into the fruit, appearing sweet rather than
acerbic on the back palate |
