Description
WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
The Syrahs are grown in the cool climate of the Sonoma Coast which offers a style reminiscent of the Northern Rhone regions of Hermitage and Cornas: aromas and flavors of smoked meat, white pepper, green olive and grapefruit, coupled with a silky texture and savory flavor.
Blend: 94% Syrah, 6% Viognier
TASTING NOTES:
Flinty, charred aromas and rather lean, smoky, meaty flavors give this wine a dramatic, austere expression compared to the typical big and ripe California red. It’s an adventure in savory, peppery complexity to pair with grilled quail, roast venison or cassoulet.
