2013 Robert Oatley Finisterre Syrah, Great Southern

Hand-picked, berry-sorted, wild and cultured yeast, open-fermented, 14 days post-ferment maceration, 12 months in new and used French oak. The introduction is the fragrant spicy berry bouquet, this taken on board by the medium-bodied palate without batting an eyelid; supple tannins flesh out the elegant finish of an attractive wine.

93 points James Halliday winecompanion.com.au

Showing some evolution on the nose, which is pleasantly redolent of red fruit, dark berries and spices. The darkly textured palate shows similar qualities, but is beginning to age. Drink up.
