Wine Details
Price:
$40.00 per bottle
Description:
Now, more on the balance issue. These grapes were perfectly and physiologically ripe. The skins had just started to pucker – they were ready. Ripeness at 23.5 brix gave us 13.7 alcohol with refreshing acidity that keeps you wanting more. This is my kind of wine! I am reminded of a lesson I learned years ago from Gerard Chave of Domaine Jean-Louis Chave… he said “when you think it’s the perfect day to pick Syrah, pick it the day before!” This 2001 embodies all that I hope for in our Hillside Syrah… it’s a wine that is delicious now and will easily age 15-25 years.
