This Syrah from Villa Silvia winery in Vinci, Italy pours a dark, dark black red in the glass.

There's quite a heavy, spicy, earthy nose and on the palate it's very dry and quite heavy.

Not very acidic, and flavourwise I got dark fruits with some spiciness, like black pepper, etc.

This is a full on heavy and bold syrah, that's quite cheap but overall pretty good.

One downside though is it's so dry that as I neared the end of hte bottle it got increasingly hard to drink (the dryness was overpowering).
But for a few glasses, or a half bottle it's, as I said, pretty good.
