"D'Alessandro's 2012 Syrah Migliara is racy, bold and explosive. Super-ripe red cherry and raspberry jam, spice, wild flowers, new leather and mint are some of the many notes that give the 2012 its racy, almost flamboyant personality. Today, the 2012 is quite young, but it has tons of potential. All of the fruit intensity is channeled through to the finish by the wine's structured frame."
