The nose is strikingly layered, with blackcurrant, blackberry, blood orange, black pepper, smoked meat, liquorice, tar, and deep earthy tones creating a complex and seductive aromatic profile.\n\nThe palate mirrors those aromas with remarkable force and clarity, led by dark fruit and smoky, savory notes of cured meat, then lifted by dried Provençal herbs and spice. The finish is long, persistent, and deeply satisfying, with the structure and balance to evolve beautifully over the next 20 years or more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Syrah comes from the Kongsgaards’ long-held parcel at Hudson Vineyard in Carneros, one of Napa Valley’s most respected cool-climate sites.
