Deep ruby-purple colored, the 2017 Angeli Syrah has a wonderfully open, lush nose of blueberry and boysenberry jam, warm red and black currants, chocolate-covered cherries, pink peppercorn, graphite and pipe tobacco plus fried herbs, salami and smoke. Full-bodied, it floods the mouth with ripe fruits, fleshing slowly into herbs and meaty hints, with wonderfully ripe, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing very long and layered. Wow! 400 cases were made.
