description: Although Chave's négociant bottling labeled Offerus can be a bit underfruited in some years, in the superripe 2003 vintage that's not an issue. It's rich, full and velvety, with blueberry fruit accented by peppery spice, meaty, black olive notes and a touch of espresso. Delicious now, but should have stuffing to last through 2015.
variety: Syrah
designation: Offerus
