Thomas & Sons Syrah 2020

The Thomas & Sons Syrah 2020 pours with a gorgeous deep purple colour, showing aromas of raspberry, cassis, black fruits and liquorice. Cedar, cigar box, black pepper and leather notes add depth, while touches of graphite and violet provide lift. The palate is wonderfully rich yet retains a lovely freshness, showing off juicy fruit flavours and smooth, velvety tannins. It finishes beautifully with a long, perfectly balanced finish that leaves you ready for the next sip.

Review by Sam Kim - Wine Orbit
5 Stars | 98pts "An exceptional offering with power and grace. The enticing bouquet showcases blackberry, cake spice, potpourri, game, and cedar characters. The palate offers outstanding weight and a richly textured mouthfeel, beautifully framed by a silky texture and polished tannins. This is mouth-filling and sumptuous with a firm structure, ensuring its gracious evolution. At its best: now to 2040."

Review by Cameron Douglas - Master Sommelier 
Outstanding | 95pts "Ripe and concentrated, a powerful bouquet with a varietal core of dark berries and roasted Doris plums, dark spices and wood smoke, deep earthy scents of clay and dried earth. Dry and equally concentrated, the wine touches the palate with core flavours of red berries and spices to reflect the bouquet. An abundance of firm tannins and backbone of acidity. A wine that is reaching into its window, a plateau of energy and style that should remain in place for a few years to come. Length and well-made, layers of texture, spice, wood smoke and fruit. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2036."
