This Martinborough Syrah from Kusuda is expected to offer an aromatic and complex profile. On the nose, anticipate intense notes of freshly cracked black pepper, dark berries like blackberry and black cherry, interwoven with floral hints of violets, and savory undertones of cured meat or olive. The palate will be medium to full-bodied, characterized by vibrant acidity and firm, fine-grained tannins. Flavors will mirror the aromas, showcasing a core of dark fruit, pronounced black pepper spice, and an earthy, mineral complexity typical of the region. The finish will be long, persistent, and elegantly peppery.
