2019 Syrah Collection Thunderstone
Tasting notes
Blood orange, blackberry purée, and olive tapenade. The 2019 Thunderstone Syrah Collection is savory on entry, with terrific texture. Swirling brings bacon fat, strawberry syrup, and cinnamon swirl. The palate is broad, with fine but persistent tannins and juicy acidity. The wine finishes dry, savory, and with a touch of oak. A youthful Syrah that you can drink now or in the next 10 years.
