Shafer 2013 Relentless Syrah (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Relentless
Variety: Syrah California
Winery: Shafer / Napa Valley

This is a stunning, vibrantly robust and intense wine, big, bold and reductive and blended with 3% Petite Sirah. Floral aromas take on meaty, gamy overtones amidst black licorice, tar and juicy strawberry, the tannins silky and supportive and the finish leathery and spicy.
