Occasio 2012 Ghielmetti Vineyard Syrah (Livermore Valley)

Country: US / Ghielmetti Vineyard
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Occasio / Livermore Valley

This is a dry, richly flavored and well-structured wine. A complex, spicy, earthy, cherrylike bouquet accompanies saturated flavors of currant, black cherry and pomegranate spiced with hints of cinnamon and nutmeg. It’s not too full bodied and has good balance that comes from firm acidity and tannins.
