FROMM Syrah 2019

Vibrant dark red with a purple hue. The nose is bright and inviting, exhibiting classic varietal aromas of cracked black pepper, a hint of clove and a gentle violet fragrance that adds to the overall appeal of this immediately accessible wine. There is fine linearity and elegance on the palate with intense ripe fruit, excellent structure and tannin support while retaining the generosity and complex flavor profile of the exceptional 2019 vintage.
