Product Notes

Matetic Vineyards EQ Syrah Cool Climate is a distinctive Chilean wine, offering an exquisite blend of dark fruit flavours and spicy undertones. Maturing in French oak barrels for 18 months bestows it with a round, velvety texture. Its vivid ruby red hue coupled with a burst of blackberry and blueberry notes make it an enlivening treat for the senses. Subtle hints of black pepper and dark chocolate lend a dramatic finish. An ethical and biodynamic production process ensures that this wine is as friendly to the environment as it is pleasurable on the palate.

Tasting Notes

Intense violet color with red hues. The nose shows bold notes of black fruit and delicate notes of floral aromas reminiscent of violets mixed with spices like pepper and a hint of wet earth. The acidity is vibrant and juicy on the palate, with a very smooth and elegant texture that is concentrated and persistent at the same time. The wine unfolds with contact with oxygen, showing great complexity and intensity.
