Description:
In 2002 we crafted a tiny amount of Syrah from three distinctly different vineyards.: Williamson, Hells Canyon and Albers. Each site contributes its own unique characteristics to the final blend, resulting in a rich, velvety expression expression of the Syrah grape grown in the diverse landscape that is Southwest Idaho.

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.
