WINE DESCRIPTION

Saint Felicien Syrah 2008 is an elegant, complex wine. Of a deep violet colour, the nose is intense with ripe plum and blueberry flavors laced with subtle vainilla, liqueur, tobacco and leather notes. On the palate, a sweet entry leads to a complex, unctuous, velvety wine. Finishes elegant, with soft, round tannins. This wine is a perfect match with pasta, beef and spicy lamb. Also goes well with chocolate and dried fruit.
