Price:
$19.99 per bottle
Description:
Red/Violet in color. Spicy and fruity aromas with hints of toasty oak and ripe blueberries. This wine has a lot going on. Lined with soft tannins, wonderful lush fruit of dried apricots and raisins and playfulness from the beginning to the long finish. Beautiful mark characters in the end mixed with elegant spices (clove and cardamom) and fine integrated oak make this wine very balanced and very food friendly.

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.
