The 2008 Syrah Watch Hill Vineyard is deeper and richer than the Thompson Hill. It virtually implodes on the palate with masses of blackberries, blueberries, tar and licorice. This is a decidedly plush style that is first and foremost about the sumptuousness of the fruit, while aromatic complexity and nuance play more of a supporting role. In 2008 the Watch Hill is 100% Syrah. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2020. This set of wines from Andrew Murray is remarkable for its breadth of quality and sheer value.Tel.
