Braganini Reserve 2006 Syrah
by Paul Arthur on Mar.22, 2009, under red wine, wine
Background: Another wine from St. Julian that I considered doing for WBW, this Syrah was aged for 12 months on French oak and weighs in at 12% ABV.
Nose: Raspberries and peppercorns right up front, with some oaky vanilla and blueberry jumping in.
Taste: Rich berry fruitiness, soft rounded tannins, and a light tartness. More peppercorns and some toasted oak in the finish.
Overall: Very nice indeed. Elegant balance and deep, layered flavours.
