Carinae Reserve Syrah 2008, a great ´Cruz de Piedra´ proudly made in Maipu


Carinae, Reserve Syrah 2008, By Carinae S.A., USD 16
A syrah from Cruz de Piedra District of Maipu Departament, Central Mendoza
A beautiful syrah with solid and well articulated tannins. Neat expressions of fruits, mostly black berries and black currrants
over a nice chocolaty complement. There is a herbal note quite interesting and a green peppercorn scent to make it more complex.
A 90 point syrah nice and beauty now but enough room for improving a couple of points next upcoming 2 to 4 years.
Great value.
