Syrah, Wine Details
Price: $22.00 per bottle

Description: This 100% varietal Syrah was grown in our cool climate Los Alamos vineyard (78%) from two distinct clones and our warmer Valley View Vineyard east of Solvang (22%). The 2002 growing season was typically long and the harvest for these grapes was not completed until late October. Fermentations were carried out in small, open topped fermenters which were punched down regularly for nearly two weeks. This wines was aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. A bold, dark, rich Syrah, this vintage will improve in bottle over the next 7-8 years.
