Mt. Monster Shiraz Limestone Coast 2022

Garnet black color. Aromas and flavors of blackberry, black cherry and leather, garrigue, and cocoa nibs and pepper with a velvety, lively, dry medium-to-full body and a warming, interesting, medium-length finish that exhibits touches of red and black cherry, grilled herbs, and pepper and leather with crunchy, chewy, well-integrated tannins and light oak flavor. Just damn tasty Syrah! A little bit Aussie, a little bit Cali, and a little bit riper vintage Rhone while being all around delicious. Exceptional. Best Buy. (tastings.com,Feb. 7, 2024)
