What is this value I see before me ...? This Syrah was destined for restaurant only sales, but due to the sellout of the usually well-priced Creekside Syrah they needed something on the shelf to take its place as a stop-gap until the '13 is ready. The nose screams black pepper while the flavours are delving into the realm of cassis and spiced raspberry; but what really sticks out here is that massive dose of black pepper ... I think with time the fruit should emerge to round this one out nicely. Price: $17.95 - Rating: ****+
