Nearly black in color, the 2001 Petite Syrah, is redolent of blackberry, anise, sweet plum, cola, chestnut, and black pepper. The mouthfeel is supple and full-bodied, with seamless layers of flavor that mingle raspberry, black currant, chocolate and blueberry with sweet vanilla and brown spice. Enjoy it now or cellar for up to ten years.
