PHARAOHMOANS SYRAH 2015 75CL

102

Out of stock

The 11th vintage elicited creativity and tested the precision of our winemaking efforts, marking it one of our most successful vintages to date. At the beginning of May, during bloom, the weather took a drastic turn, with winds and rains causing the vines to lose the majority of their berries, resulting in significantly smaller yields with high level of fruit concentration. Then, in the middle of July, another storm hit Paso Robles delivering 4 inches of much needed rain just in time for veraison, when the grapes needed water the most. We were destined for greatness with harvest right around the corner. We harvested the Syrah mid-September, as planned. The vineyard is planted in two different terroirs: one from deeper clay-rich soil allowing for stronger tannin structure and the other from shallower hillside limestone, adding freshness to the grapes. The 2015 Syrah is incredibly elegant, the silky tannins coat your mouth with flavors of cassis, dark fruits and some licorice. The bold flavors and incredible structure will allow this wine to age gracefully for 10-15 years.

  • Joseph Newman

    I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.

    3.8 stars with more aging potential.

    A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.

    On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

  • Soham Phillips

    This amazing powerhouse from Ribera del Duero. Tinto Pesquera Reserva 2012 - Bodegas Alejandro Fernández. Decanting is advised 👌🍷 delicious cherry, vanilla, leather and cederbox with cigars. Milk chocolat, forrest floor, laurel. Great lenght and depth Amazing wine!

  • Gregor Jagermeister

    90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.

    Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
