Gillmore 2013 Mariposa Estate Old Vines Dry Farmed Syrah-Merlot (Loncomilla Valley)

Country: Chile / Loncomilla Valley
Variety: Syrah-Merlot
Winery: Gillmore / Mariposa Estate Old Vines Dry Farmed

This dry-farmed Syrah and Merlot blend opens with foresty berry and black-olive aromas. A tight, zesty, acidic palate deals lively flavors of red plum, currant, olive and toasty oak. On a dry, almost astringent finish, this tastes of tomato, red plum and herbs.
