Medium garnet-purple colored, the 2010 Gruyere Syrah gives aromas of black pepper and Mediterranean herbs over fresh blackberries and black cherries plus some damp earth. Light to medium bodied, this wine has crisp acid, taut berry fruit flavors, a medium level of grainy tannins and a long peppery finish. Drink it now to 2015.
