2000 Fontodi Syrah Tuscany

(92 points) The 2000 Case Via Syrah is the most successful wine in the lineup, and the late summer heat was obviously beneficial to this variety. Very dark and saturated in color, its roasted blackberry fruit, smoked meat, and mineral aromas are followed by a round, ample, and deep palate, concentrated but polished and velvety in texture, sweet, warm, and enveloping on the finish. -Wine Advocate.
