100% Syrah
The 2018 Intrepid is a decadent expression of the best Syrah from Law Estate vineyards from an exceptional and milestone worthy vintage. Very low yields and a long warm summer prolonged the Syrah’s hang time on the vine, generating serious complexity and concentration. A deep and dark core of black and blue fruit is complimented by a tremendous amount of spice, clove, black cardamom and gamy cured meats providing a sense of command and tension. Impossibly dark, perfectly balanced tannins and just a hint of exceptionally well-integrated oak created a truly Hedonistic expression of Syrah that will develop with true grace for the next 10 to 15 years. 97 points - Jeb Dunnuck
