Tasting Notes For Shafer Relentless Napa Shiraz/Syrah 2018
Shafer Relentless Napa Valley Syrah 2018 is a bold and complex red wine that showcases the unique terroir of the region. Crafted with a blend of 89% Syrah and 11% Petite Sirah, this wine boasts an intense ruby color and aromas of blackberry, blueberry, and black cherry, with hints of vanilla, espresso, and tobacco.
On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and rich, with flavors of dark fruit, cocoa, and licorice, complemented by smooth tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The wine was aged for 30 months in 100% new French oak barrels, adding subtle notes of spice and toast to the already complex flavor profile.
This wine is a great match for hearty meat dishes like steak, lamb, or venison, and also pairs well with rich, savory cheeses. Enjoy it now or cellar for up to a decade to fully appreciate its aging potential.
