The always scintillating Sur Echalas Vineyard Syrah from Horsepower is a 100% Syrah masterpiece that was aged for 15 months in 100% neutral French oak barrels. A brooding deep blue-purple core with a light purple rim in the glass, this is a stunning example of Syrah with an intricate nose of black-peppered charcuteries, toasted anise, brown mushrooms, dried blue and purple flower petals, combined with a mélange of blue and black fruits. With sweet, smooth tannins and crunchy acidity it’s a wine that you will remember drinking for years after you experience it. It’s that good. 345 cases made. Highly recommended.
