Que Sera Syrah 2021
While the Que Syrah doesn't match the inky purple hue of its Shiraz counterpart it is a lovely deep plum (In standard sensory analysis dark red is good, light red more equivocal, surprise, surprise.) Prior to bottling, it spent 1 year in French oak (30% new). First impression on the nose is sweet, rich and dense - all pleasant sensations - as distinct from the jammy/tarry more forceful and obvious notes of a typical Aussie monster.
On the palate, you'll get firm tannins that will allow at least five years of ageing for the self-disciplined. Some white pepper is evident, accompanied by a slight attractive tartness. Venison and duck are good bedfellows.
