Syrah - Aguila Vineyard

Syrah - Aguila Vineyard Wine Details
Price: $28.00 per bottle

Description: Our 2003 Syrah - Aguila Vineyard, is from one of the oldest rootstocks in Oregon, planted in 1994. The age contributes to the complexity of the wine; the mature vines and the deep roots allow the grapes to express the unique terroir of the site, comprised mostly of Selmac loam soil with good drainage. The wine is well balanced with firm tannins and has dark plum overtones with a hint of black pepper on the finish. The Syrah's fruitiness is enhanced by salty and bitter foods - olives, lemon, eggplant, greens. It will hit its peak 2006-2010.
