About this Item

2011 Syrah
12 (1 x 12) 750ml

Unreleased due to the extremely low yields. This is a true collectors item!

Often compared to ethereal Cornas or Hermitage, the 2011 following the debut 2010, was never released commercially due to extremely low yields, making this a rare collector's item.

Notes

Due to time constraints set upon us with the COVID-19 Lockdown no original bottle shots were taken.

Critics Ratings

'Wow. This delivers a riveting display of singed anise, black tea, mulled blood orange and incense aromas, backed by a racy-edged core of dark cherry, raspberry and blackberry purée notes. Then everything pulls together on the graphite-edged finish and just smolders there for a while. On point right now, but no rush. Syrah.' - Wine Spectator 94/100
