2022 Rouleur Syrah
100% Syrah from high elevation old vines at Tudor Vineyard & Olsen Ranch. Bursting aromas and flavors of blueberry, blackberry, lavender oil, and white pepper. Gorgeous. The best Rouleur ever!
The Rouleur Syrah has a dark black-red hue. Bursting aromas of blueberry, blackberry, marionberry, lavender oil, white & black pepper, dried sage, loamy earth, pencil shavings, and notes of umami. The mouthfeel is dense, rich and exploding with black fruits, savory herbs, lavender, and notes of white peppercorn, roasted meats, and lavender. The copious extract is balanced by acidity and freshness. This is the best Rouleur so far and better than the Dutchman Syrah’s from a decade ago. Enjoy through 2032.
