The 2021 Aspire is a blend of 87% Syrah and 13% Grenache matured for 22 months in 68% new French oak. It's bursting with scents of cassis, blueberry, garrigue, peppercorn, coffee beans and aniseed, plus savory and earthy undertones. The full-bodied palate has a powerful structure of powdery tannins and focused acidity. its core of fruit is youthfully coiled but it still offers notable definition and detail, and it has a long, mineral-driven finish. It balances power and elegance and will be long lived in the cellar.
