Default TN Matetic syrah

bought on a whim, drunk on whim, mid week
EQ syrah from the Matetic vineyard Chile 2006

Huge extract, hint of purple, like a young port.
complex nose of white pepper and tomatoes, heavy hot spice.
Huge entrance with big very soft tannins, a real fruit bomb, drinking well
now, but will it be a stayer.?

SWMBO, thought it was better than her fave which is an old Amarone, if you
get the drift on weight and complexity.

GBP 14.95 not cheap for a mid week wine.
