Dreadnought Syrah Magnum (1.5L)

Dreadnought Syrah Magnum (1.5L)Dreadnought 2015 reflects the growing season with very small crops of intensely flavoured fruit in the cherry tayberry spectrum with liquorice characters from stem influence. The fruit and stem tannins are fine grained and ripe adding freshness and length to the wine, with the overall structure suggesting classical Northern Rhone Syrah. Stylish and finely balanced this wine is beautiful now and will benefit from splashy decanting prior to drinking
