Tasting Notes

Luke Syrah is 100% Syrah and a full-bodied red packed with profound color, concentration of flavors and velvet elegance. The wine opens up rich and bold, suggesting pepper, licorice, dark chocolate, and spice followed by blackberry, blueberry, and candied fruits. A lengthy finish highlights the ripeness and complexity of the wine.

Vinous

90 Points // Like a roadside candle or incense shop, the 2020 Syrah lifts from the glass with a spicy mix of dried blackberries, blueberries, clove and citrus rinds. This soothes the palate with ripe red and blue fruits as juicy acidity further excites under a pretty air of inner violet florals. The 2020 doesn't miss a beat, tapering off lightly structured but long and packed full of dark berry concentration.

Wine Enthusiast

91 Points // Blackberries and vanilla duel for aromatic supremacy with bacon fat and violets: there are no losers in this battle. Rich, concentrated flavors of cassis and bittersweet dark chocolate join bits of crushed rock and cinnamon. The acidity is restrained, but the opulent mouthfeel espouses hedonism.
