Lethbridge Que Syrah Syrah 2018 is a bold yet playful take on cool-climate Syrah. With a deep red hue and a nose full of vibrant spice and cherry, it follows through with earthy funk, dark fruit, and a firm tannin grip. It's got personality—structured, savory, and delicious now, but with plenty of life ahead in the cellar.

Medium deep dark red. Vibrant spice and cherry characters on the nose. Balanced, funky earth and dark fruit characters on the palate. Great breadth of firm tannins across the
palate before a long finish. Highly enjoyable now, it will certainly stand some cellaring.
