Wine Details
Price:
$26.00 per bottle
Description:
Essentially a single-vineyard, 100% Syrah from Dwelley Vineyard, a mid-altitude, south-facing slope on very deep silt-loam soils. 2004 was amongst the warmest of vintages, and as with all our wines, the grapes were hand-picked; harvest weather was dry and hot. The aroma is of oine, gamey characters and black cherry. Smoky Syrah notes dominate the palate, with ripe black fruits, pepper and vanilla accents. There's a gentle balance with softness and polish encouraging early drinking. Bottled in April, 2006 after aging in out cellars for 18 months in primarily French oak (close to 30% new}. Will benefit from medium-term cellaring, gaining additional integration and flavour development over 12-18 months.
