"From the Faila estate, both dry-farmed and organic were planted in 1988. The vines are mere kilometres from the Pacific Ocean, where less than a hectare of this high-elevation site is planted to Syrah. Stunningly aromatic with notes of crushed violets, smoky frankincense, grilled blood orange and smoked sea salt. The palate is well-framed and gorgeously mineral-rich. Deep earth tones, smoky soy umami and loads of rich salinity form the wine's core. Fresh raspberries, strawberry leather and hints of tobacco leaf bring you to the crescendo."
