Bartier Bros. Syrah Cerqueira Vineyard 2019, Okanagan Valley $30.34 I 90/100

UPC: 628055147121 Bartier Syrah is grown within a chip shot of the winery on Cerqueira Vineyard over the Black Sage Gravel Terrace. Bartier specializes in funnelling the nuances of the desert surrounding his vineyard into the bottle, lending this slick version of Syrah a floral, scrubby, garrigue undertone with a rich mineral finish. The attack is of a similar construct with savoury blueberries and wild silver sage-scented blackberry jam. Youthful and almost drinkable now, this will repay five to seven years in the bottle, if not longer. Lamb burgers are the match now.
