Notes from the Winemaker:

How do we get our rich and spicy Syrah? After harvest, the grapes are sorted, de-stemmed and cold soaked for seven days. The must is pressed off at 2.0 - 3.0 Brix and primary fermentation is completed in the barrels. Rack and returns are done every four months to ensure bright, open aromatics and silkier tannins. The integrated oak flavors and firm yet balanced tannins couple with cherry cola, dark fruit, cedar and mocha flavors.


What Does It Taste Like?

The aromas deliver cherry cola, mocha, barrel spice and sweet earth. Flavors of rich, dark fruit, cinnamon and toasty oak are complemented by a velvety mouthfeel. Balanced tannins round out the long finish.


Ratings & Reviews

Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar:
"Dark ruby.  Dark berries, olive and black pepper on the nose and palate.  Firm and tangy, with good clarity and a late note of candied licorice that carries through the finish.  Easygoing and ready to drink." - Josh Raynolds (Nov/Oct '11)
