The Real Review: 2024 McLaren Vale Syrah, 96 pts

The Real Review   |   Aaron Brasher

A vibrantly dark, inky and impenetrable plum in colour. Enticing aromas of Asian spice, sarsaparilla, blueberry, dried flowers, sousbois, a touch of whole bunch and some nutty oak. Mouth-filling, youthful and full of blue fruits, mulberry, anise, graphite, oak and firm, textured tannins. Serious shape, length and presence here.
