Anthonij Rupert Coastal Region Syrah 2007 93+ Points



Captivating and wow! Welcoming less alcohol but still 15%, compare to an irresponsible 16%abv in 2006, this Northern Rhone profile, kind of a cross between Gigondas and St Joseph, shows an intense perfume, floral complexity, juicy dark red fruits with no sign of over ripeness or raisin character, peppery complexity with herbal freshness, plush, ripe and crunchy tannins argurs well for future development, super sexy now, will peak around 2017+.
