Michael David 6th Sense Syrah – characterful, rich red wine
Michael David 6th Sense Syrah is a bold yet elegantly balanced Californian Syrah that brings the expressive world of Syrah/Shiraz wines into your glass. It highlights the classic strengths of the variety: deep colour, intense bouquet and a full, fruit-forward flavour profile.
Aroma and flavour
In the glass, it shows a deep, dark ruby-red colour. On the nose, black fruits – blueberry, blackberry and blackcurrant – take the lead, complemented by ripe plum notes. In the background, layers of freshly ground black pepper, subtle smokiness and a touch of vanilla add further complexity and depth.
On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with a silky texture and well-integrated tannins. Alongside the generous dark fruit, spicy, peppery and lightly smoky nuances unfold and linger pleasantly. The finish is long and smooth, leaving a gently warming impression.
Serving suggestions
Michael David 6th Sense Syrah pairs well with hearty, flavourful dishes. It is a great match for beef and lamb, grilled meats, spicy sausages and aged semi-hard cheeses. Thanks to its structure and aromatic richness, it also works beautifully as a companion to relaxed, slow-paced evenings and conversations.
For optimal enjoyment, serve at 60–64 °F (16–18 °C) so that the fruity and spicy character can fully unfold. Allowing the wine a few minutes to breathe after opening can help further round out the flavours.
Who is it for?
This Syrah is ideal for those who enjoy full-bodied, dark-fruited, spicy red wines and like to explore characterful yet velvety expressions within the Syrah/Shiraz category. It is a strong choice as a gift, for special occasions, or whenever you want a memorable red wine to accompany dinner or a tasting.
