The Villard family’s Tanagra Syrah from Chile’s Casablanca Valley is a rare, rich, and opulent expression of cool-climate Syrah. Crafted from high-density, bush-vine trained Syrah and aged in new American and French oak, it delivers dark fruit, smoky meat, and spicy flavors with full, chewy tannins. Limited to only 4,600 bottles, this exclusive wine is ready to enjoy now but promises to age beautifully for a decade or more.
Meaty and lustrous nose, showing very impressive depth and width of complexity. Grilled herbs, cured meat, lard and peppercorn, as well as some graphite, violets and ripe black and blue fruit. Impressively concentrated, but full of fruit, with plenty of creamy, nicely chewy tannins. There is no shortage of freshness either. Better after 2025.
