The “Love Rocks” wines present clonal Syrahs from the Rôtie Estate Vineyards. This one shows a deep ruby-crimson color and exotic aromas of dark fruits - blackberries, huckleberries, cranberries, black currants - with scents of black roses, sweet tobacco, sweet pea flowers, olive tapenade, wild violets and sweet oriental incense. On the palate, the flavors are velvety yet deep cored and powerful, with layers of black and blue fruits that are infused with licorice root, dark cocoa, Earl Grey tea and stony, silty minerals. The penetration continues on the back with sensations of pressed berries, roasted nuts, mocha, toffee, crème de cassis, followed by a long, long, slightly grainy yet rich and smooth tannin finish. - Rand Sealey 20/20 points.
