Santa Rita, Maipo Valley (Chile) Syrah

By Paul Lukacs

Palm Bay Imports ($45)

This luscious Syrah merits a splurge. It offers rich fruit flavors enhanced by spicy, peppery notes and an intriguing, faintly herbal edge in the finish. Very classy, complex, and complete, it can hold its own with top wines made with this increasingly popular grape variety made anywhere in the world.
