Syrah-Sirah

Syrah-Sirah Wine Details
Price: $22.00 per bottle

Description: We have a long history of blending Syrah and Petite Sirah. Purists may not forgive my alliterative companionship of the two, but by golly the two grapes sounded alike so 25 years ago I planted them side by side and proceeded to combine them in the bottle. Serendipity in your glass. The fleshy tannins, satsuma plummyness and animal growl of the first married beautifully with the grit, gumption and black cherry of the latter to make a rich, deep and long-aging red with both French and California breeding.
