Enon Wine
Enon Hill of Enon Syrah 2003 - French Oak

Our Flagship Wine - single vineyard production

Tasting Notes: Intense deep red with good tone. Ripe, yet fresh fruit aromas of black and red berries and plus with underlying spiciness and a hint of cigar box. Oak and fruit fragrances are well integrated and evenly balanced even at this early stage. Firm, yet soft ripe tannins, with a subtle sweetness on the palate entry. Rounded and ripe fruit flavors, with good intensity, given even more than the nose promises; well-integrated with the oak. Sweet memory of ripe fruits and tannins persisting for a long time on the palate.
