About Atticus The Finch Syrah 2020 750mL
Atticus The Finch Syrah 2020 opens with an inviting nose of dark plum, crushed blackberry, and violet florals, layered with subtle wafts of cracked black pepper and smoked meat that speak to the variety's northern Rhône character. On the palate, the wine is generous and full-bodied, delivering waves of ripe black cherry, blueberry compote, and dark chocolate, underpinned by savory olive tapenade and a whisper of espresso. The tannins are plush yet structured, with bright acidity keeping everything lifted and fresh. The finish is long and warming, leaving behind echoes of spice, graphite, and dried herbs.
