Description

The essence of vineyard and the varietal, the 1997 Astralis has a saturated purple colour and is just beginning to show more nuances, such as the tell-tale Syrah characteristics of pepper, melted asphalt as well as a wealth of blackberry and crème de cassis fruit. The new oak seems to have been sucked up completely, and the wine shows softness and evolution. Nevertheless, it is still a very youthful, backward, spectacular wine that has surreal levels of richness and potential complexity. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2024 RP Feb 2004

Score: 98 Robert Parker, RobertParker.com, February 2002

Available cheapest in UK at £190 per bottle (case only)
