James Suckling, 94 Points 

"Blackcurrants and blueberries with asphalt and earthy undertones. It's full-bodied with dusty tannins. Fleshy and round on the palate. Salty and slightly smoky on the finish. Shows a lot of wood right now. But already enjoyable. Drink or hold.” 

Wine Advocate, 93 Points 

"The eponymous 2017 Syrah was cropped from an unusual year and felt a bit closed at first and needed time to slowly open up the glass. The palate reveals a lot of tannins, which is quite unusual for this wine. It finishes with marked bitterness. A bit of a question mark.“ 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Deep, dark violet in color, the Matetic Syrah has complex aromas that show the wine’s coastal origins. Elegant notes of pepper, wet earth, meat, spices, and chocolate combine with subtle violet notes. On the palate, the flavors are reminiscent of black fruit with iodized notes, and an intense, elegant finish."
