The 2015 Syrah The Pixie was aged in once-used barrels (and I'm guessing high-toast Fran?ois Frères), but they still impart a considerable payload of char to the bouquet of berry fruit. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, lavish and succulent, with a bright, spicy finish. It's juicy and nicely concentrated, and with a bit of bottle age, I suspect this will come together very nicely.
