Moon Curser Vineyards 2016 Syrah (Osoyoos East Bench) Okanagan Valley - BC
Availability: Direct from the winery here
Cost: $25.99 + taxes
Alcohol: 14.8%
Production: 924 cases
Date Tasted: July 4th, 2018
Tasting Notes: Opening with a violet, blackberry and pepper infused nose, this Syrah/Shiraz is Okanagan meets Australia, in style, with a touch of residual sugar on the rounded, glycerol heavy palate where seemingly competing flavours of black cherry and black pepper successfully coexist. Structure is sound with good acidity and mannered tannins, sourced from the Bartsch Vineyard on the East Bench of Osoyoos.
Sealed with a Stelvin cap enclosure to preserve the fruit components through the life of the wine which could easily be 6-7 years. Drink now-2022.
