This Yarra Valley Syrah, from a cool-climate region, is expected to present a sophisticated aromatic profile. On the nose, look for expressive notes of dark berries like blackberry and plum, intertwined with characteristic white pepper, anise, and a hint of herbal or smoky undertones. There might be subtle oak influence adding complexity with touches of vanilla or spice. The palate should be medium-bodied with elegant structure, fine-grained tannins, and vibrant acidity. Flavors will mirror the nose, offering a savory core with persistent dark fruit and a long, peppery finish.
