DuMOL Syrah Russian River Valley

Brilliant dark ruby color. Immediate complexity of sweet and savory aromas – white and black pepper, cassis and blue fruits, dried Provencal herbs, smoked meat, balsamic and floral notes. Forward, soft ripe fruit on the palate, juicy and plush. Blueberry and boysenberry then savory notes take hold – tapenade, soy, graphite, thyme and lavendar. Long and expanding finish. Decant for an hour in its youth.
