An inky, Byzantium purple, the 2019 Black Bart Syrah brims with rose petal, anise and cinnamon followed by sweet California bay leaf. Elegantly structured and lush with balanced acidity, velvety dark chocolate meets a zesty mid-palate of tart Montmorency cherry, finishing with a hint of cinnamon. This wine will linger on your palate. Pair with ribeye steak with a wild mushroom bordelaise, or a gruyere pizza with caramelized onions and butter-fried sage.
