2019 Sparkman Syrah Ruckus

The 2019 Syrah Ruckus is mostly Syrah but includes 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Viognier. Its deep ruby/purple hue is followed by a perfumed, complex wine offering lots of red and blue fruits, some peppery herbs, violets, and gamey nuances, medium to full body, ripe tannins, and an outstanding finish. It's nicely balanced, has terrific purity, and is going to keep for at least a decade.
