375 mL
Item # 24229

Although winemaker Alexandre is a mere 27 years young he has grown-up in the vineyards and would tell you he’s been making wine for 20 years. His passion is expressed through his wines and truly shows in this fragrant, earthy and beautifully balanced syrah. Rosemary-Lamb would be a natural pair.
