Deep garnet in color, the 2009 Syrah gives a moderate intensity of black cherry and pepper aromas with some tilled earth, tar and black tea notes. Crisp acid and a medium level of rounded tannins lend support to a fair amount of dark berry and spice flavors leading into a long peppery finish. Delicious now, it should keep to 2015.
