Description:
A swirl of white pepper leads into chocolate-covered cherries, boysenberries, crème brulee, wet stone, and cured meats. Elegant and subtle, sustaining a vibrant purple/black essence, the backbone of dusty tannins supports a mid-palate of bright red fruits, leather, and violets. Lasting impressions of juicy acidity linger with accents of mineral and crushed blueberries.

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.
