Riversdale Estate Syrah 2021
Concentrated red berries and blue plums provide a generousity of flavour on entry with dried herbs, white pepper and star anise blending into the backround. There's plenty of spice and fresh mint which keeps things lively alongside a mineral edge towards the back palate, which then leads towards a finely grained tannin structure. It's still a baby that's going to continue to develop and integrate further over the long haul and Decanting is recommended if drinking now.
