The 2003 Syrah Astralis Vineyard stood out as a spectacular offering, possibly as good as the virtually perfect 2002. Its inky/black/purple color is accompanied by superb aromas of white flowers, chocolate, black fruits, and espresso roast. Full-bodied, unctuously textured, and gorgeously pure, it should be cellared for 5-8 years. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2025+.
Roman Bratasiuk is one of Planet Earth's greatest winemakers, and obviously a top-notch viticulturist given his obsession with sourcing extraordinary fruit from ancient McLaren Vale vineyards.
