The 2019 Alder Springs Syrah pours a pure dark ruby that is nearly opaque. The nose bursts with aromas of ripe berries, sandalwood, and fines herbes blend. The tannins are fine but present. This a big wine that somehow remains light on its feet. This wine will surely age effortlessly for years, but is delicious in its youth. Enjoy with roasted or grilled meats at your holiday table.
