Trinity Hill, Homage Syrah Vintage:2014 with fine-grained tannins adding frameworkTasted blind. Shaded, polished garnet. Peppery, leathery nose. Very classic and rewarding. Great balance. Bone dry finish but perfect poise. Fresh and racy. Almost more like a mouthwash than a wine in a good way! Cool in every way. (This tasted like a dead ringer for Cte Rtie!) (JR)
