Product Description
Wine Enthusiast ReviewRated 92
Direct aromas of blackberry are clean and focused on the nose of this bottling, which benefits from a light licorice spice. The palate is driven by dark fruits, with tar, dried meat and peppercorn flavors adding complexity.
Wine Tasting Notes
Dark velvet stains the glass preparing senses for powerful aromatics starring dark cherry, wild blueberry and toasted hazelnut flavors accompanied by notes of vanilla bean and campfire smoke. The core of Cass Paso Robles Backbone Syrah is focused displaying talc like tannins of ripe plum, blackberry, and hints of cracked black pepper. Undertones of charcuterie, dusty violet and sweet tobacco leaf provide the prelude to a persistent finish of dried blueberry, cocoa nibs and a lingering black graphite themed minerality.
