Clarendon, Clarendon Hills, Astralis, Syrah 2010 Syrah it’s a massive wine by100 points Wine Advocate Deep garnet purple in color, the 2010 Astralis is still quite primary eliciting aromas of black plums, blueberry compote and blackcurrant liqueur with a savory and baking spice undercurrent plus a fragrant whiff of violets. Very structured, fine and complex in the medium to full bodied mouth, this wine is revealing much more than when I first tasted it a year ago and is now showing layer upon layer of black fruit preserves,
