Lovely dark aubergine hue with aromas of a leading blast of cinnamon, chinese 5 spice, clove and dark berry.
Palate--Cinnamon on the first introduction to my palate, followed by rich, borroding black spiced fruit, with another layer of "sweet" goodness that I don't even have a descriptor for on hand. Finishes with more chinese five spice.
This may be the most unusual (and I mean this in a good way) Syrah I have ever had. It hails from Spain no less and may be my first one from Spain. It is seductive, enticing, and just plain good!
I am pairing this with a grilled pork Loin and I think it will be awesome. At $7.50 raise a case!
