Tasting note

A smoky, earthy, substantial syrah, nicely peppered - a pleasant surprise. Avouch of sweet cassis and licorice on the finish. Certainly an approachable, crowd pleasing style that doesn't sacrifice varietal character. Tasted October 2013. Score - 88. (Sara d'Amato, winealign.com, Nov. 1, 2013)

Under the ruby colour, the nose is intense and complex. Enjoy this dry, medium-bodied and woody red featuring refreshing acidity. On the palate, it showcases fleshy tannins and a broad mouthfeel that leads into a medium finish.

Liberty School Syrah exudes classic aromas of blueberries and cherries along with hints of eucalyptus and violets. Zesty acidity gives way to a round mouthfeel of cranberries and plum on the mid-palate along with hints of pepper and herbs. Elements of minerality and velvety smooth tannins lead to a long finish.
