Granmonte, The Orient Syrah, 2012, Thailand

Anyone can make wine but not everyone can make good wine let alone excellent wine, so where does The Orient Syrah come? Its good, very good for an 8 year old Syrah. This was made by someone that clearly knew how to make good wine.

There are aromas of plum, oak, spice and hints of pepper. The flavours of plum, blackberry, blackcurrant are still there but is nice and smooth with mellowness and softness that is a delight.

Thailand is now on the list of countries that can make decent wine, I hope all Thailand wine makers can get to this standard.
