Para Maria de los Tecolotes Syrah - Petit Verdot Blend

One of the few clubs I would join-wine or otherwise. I love stolpman. And this one is fantastic.

2015 vintage, great nose. suuuuper tight. This could be a Vacqueras. Minerals, muted fruit. Structured well, gripping tannins. Needs air, time. More endearing as it opens.

80% Syrah; 20% Petit Verdot

Nice as served as a tasting example, it’s a Buy

Reliably delicious for a great price.

Fresh berries on the nose; fragrant and fresh.

Definite pepper. Had with BBQ ribs but tasted even better on its own. Want to buy a bottle to drink alone and finish off the night.

Intense as the eye of the owl. This is a well assembled mouth-coating wine. It’s for a cold snap of a night - something to battle the weather. Dark, deep, and intense. Needs a fatty steak or creamy stew to match the richness. Appreciated for beautiful violets, dark berries, saddle leather, sage, mint, and menthol on the nose. The palette shows Syrah typicity- smokey jerky, fruit leather, and dark berries. Beautifully concentrated and bold, but with a soft mouth.

Drink for when whiskey would do just as well.

Never fails me. Perfect mid weight Syrah blend
