"Mr. Burgess", The Withers 2016

This classic Northern Rhone inspired wine opens with floral aromatics reminiscent of violets and spreads across the palate with dark stone fruit, light game and black and white pepper flavors and balancing acidity. Medium bodied with a dry finish, this Syrah pays homage to our heroes in Hermitage and Cornas. Cellar age or decanting will provide rewards should you open the wine over the next few years.

Will pair effortlessly with fuller bodied seafood, pasta, fowl and meat.

Blend: 89% Syrah and 11% Mourvedre.
