Wine Details
Price:
$60.00 per bottle
Description:
This wine is packed with lush mouthfuls of concentrated blue fruits. Blueberry preserves, blackberry pie, creosote, and iodine create a brawny yet balanced California Syrah. Layers of smoke and roux spark nostalgic memories of a home-cooked meal. Hints of clove are faint but effective.

Varietal Definition
Syrah:
Syrah is the eight hundred pound gorilla of Rhone grapes! In the vineyard and the winery, Syrah is typically an easy grape to work with - healthy, early ripening, resistant to mildew and rot; suitable for winemaking in a variety of styles. The wines from Syrah are tannic without being harsh. The wines will have a taste and smell of dark blue fruit like blackberries and blackcurrant, with a strong spicy side where one can find freshly ground pepper and other spices. Syrah is famous for its part in the French blends, such as Côtes du Rhone and Châteauneuf du Pape.
