Bien Nacido Syrah, Bien Nacido
Description
The co-fermentation of Viognier lends a softer and more floral tone, which makes the Estate Syrah a perfect wine to open early in its life. Fresh violets cracked white pepper and blueberry pie dominate with a fresh herbs-de-Provence note found in the background.
With a dollop of 1% Viognier, this superb vintage aged 16 months in (24% new) French oak. Pungent, earthy aromas of grilled meat and blackberry abound. Layers of dark chocolate, espresso, and dried violets show on a palate whose minerality holds its juiciness in check. Ripe plum and brown sugar are luscious with cedar and spice on the finish.

Producer Details
In 1969, brothers Bob and Steve Miller vision was simple, to develop a vineyard that would be acknowledged as amongst the most recognised vineyards of the world. It took them four years of hard work to set up the 121 hectares of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The combination of rocky soils, cool climate and ocean influence, make the Bien Nacido wines a superb, handcrafted range.
