K酒莊飛利浦小路西拉干紅葡萄酒

點擊次數(shù)：3358

A deep and compact wine with Syrah fruit styled with a Cabernet-like verticality, this layers ripe berry fruit with streaks of graphite, ash and rock. The flavors persist through a lingering, super clean finish with the balance and acidity to age. What are initially tightly wound subtleties of herb and spice may well expand into nuanced complexity over the next decade or more.——P.G.(12/15/2011)—— 94

The Phil Lane, from a small vineyard that adjoins the winery, is refined and elegant in the context of the K Vintners Syrah pantheon. This has a generous amount of herb and organic/umami flavor, and the fruit is a component, but not dominant. A contemplative wine, with a subtle weave of herb, earth and berry. The acids are not yet entirely integrated, but that’s a minor caveat.——P.G.(2/1/2011)—— 93
