Description:
Our Santa Cruz Mountains Syrah is the type of wine I really enjoy. It is flavorful and complex, and very stylish. It doesn’t have to beat you over the head to get its point across. Instead, it impresses with its balance, its sophistication and approachability. This is a “Go To” wine, one that you can confidently recommend for a variety of customers and occasions. - Eric Fountain, sales director.

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.
