Buena Vista Ramal Vineyard Estate Syrah 2007

The 2007 Ramal Vineyard Syrah is very complex and an elegant expression of cool climate Syrah in which the gamey side of Syrah is balanced by fresh fruit flavors and a food-friendly level of acidity. The aromas are deep and layered, with notes of boysenberry and blackberry, bacon fat, smoked meat, chocolate covered cherry, spice and licorice. The wine exhibits rich flavors of plum and black cherry, white pepper, with a rich mid palate that leads to a long finish.
