Kusuda Syrah 2011
Full bodied garnet colour with an energetic youthful blue hue. Swirls in the glass with a weighty feel of density and concentration.
A clean, clear and direct nose intensely expressive of wild blackberry (picked and eaten at the bush) and black doris plum with a delicate lacing of very mild white pepper and sweet oak spice.
