Description:
The 2003 Summerwood Syrah is the product of another great vintage here in Paso Robles. A blend of our Estate Syrah, Lock Vineyard, Denner Vineyard and Halter Ranch, this is a true expression of Westside Paso Robles Syrah. Expressive fruit, a rich texture and lingering finish make this approachable now as well as years to come.

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.
