This wine has a rich aroma of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, with hints of pepper and herbs. On the palate, it is full-bodied with firm tannins and flavors of ripe berries, black pepper, and a long, smooth finish. Syrah pairs perfectly with red meats, game, and rich stews. Its bold, complex nature makes it a versatile wine that complements both casual and elegant dining experiences.
