Product information "Almenkerk Syrah 2013"
The Almenkerk Syrah is a pure Syrah from three different Syrah clones, which grow on one and the same vineyard. Complex aromas of blackcurrant and blackberry as well as warm, earthy and spicy notes beguile the senses. Packed with sweet and clear fruit, paired with fleshy and spicy nuances. Its smooth texture and dense fruit structure on the full-bodied palate leave nothing to be desired. The gentle maturing process of 24 months in French barriques skilfully rounds off the company's tannin structure.
