Viña Mayu Reserva Syrah 2007 Elqui Valley
From the northernmost wine producing region in Chile, the perfect growing climate of the Elqui Valley gives this fantastic Syrah genuine 'Rhône-style' characteristics of black pepper, blackberries and a distinct meaty undercurrent. A juicy, rich and full-bodied palate with notes of cassis, spice and well integrated oak are married with soft, ripe tannins and superb acidity which create an elegant and rounded wine in the mouth. Perfect with steak or hard cheeses, this wine also won a Gold medal and Trophy for best Syrah at the Wines of Chile awards 2008.
