Wine Details
Price:
$36.00 per bottle
Description:
On a gently sloping south facing hillside, Syrah vines thrive in the iron rich soils of the Hampton Vineyard. Dale Hampton is one of the most widely respected vineyard managers in all of California, and this is his own personal vineyard. We believe he loves this vineyard. With 100% Syrah plantings, the vineyard uses a unique "T" trellis system that allows for less direct sun contact on the grapes and less dehydration. It allows the grapes to hang longer on the vine while ripening, developing more interesting and concentrated flavors with every passing fall day. The wine itself is made in the same extracted style as our other single vineyard Syrahs, and has spent nearly two full years in a combination of French and American oak barrels before bottling. We hope you’ll agree it was worth the wait.
