About Aramis The Heir Syrah 2014 750ML
Aramis 'The Heir' Syrah 2014 opens with a brooding, complex bouquet of dark plum, crushed blackberry, and cured meat, underscored by violet florals and a whisper of cracked black pepper — hallmarks of a well-structured Southern French or New World Syrah with serious intent. On the palate, the wine is richly textured and full-bodied, delivering waves of black cherry, smoked olive, and dark chocolate, framed by supple but present tannins and a backbone of bright acidity that keeps everything in balance. With nearly a decade of bottle age, the 2014 vintage has softened beautifully, integrating its oak influence into a seamless, velvety mouthfeel with hints of leather, graphite, and dried herbs emerging mid-palate.
