Almenkerk Syrah 2011

An intra-cultivar blend of 3 clones from a single vineyard. A result of meticulous sorting, natural fermentation and judicious wooding, it is packed with sweet clean fruit and meaty, slightly spicy characters. The gentle ageing, 24-months in French barriques, softens the firm tannin structure.
