Booker Vineyard Syrah Fracture 2019

A Syrah of almost indecent concentration that somehow stays weightless, blackberry drawn taut over crushed black pepper. Prachtig — the stony ground keeps speaking long after the fruit has bowed out. The circle hedged at the sheer size of it; I did not.

Alc. 15.5% · Weathered limestone marl · very barren sites

Tasted at «Shiraz around the World», an LCV Suisse evening on 24 April 2026. The circle's average: 16.67/20 — my score: 19/20. The critics: Suckling 93 · Parker 94 · Vinous 93.
