Wine Details
Price:
$16.00 per bottle
Description:
This blend is weighted toward the cool, Santa Rita Hills (76%) with Andy Joughin’s Roblar Vineyard making up the warm climate component. The excellent low yield, concentrated vintage of 2002 had Bruce blending together four vineyards that were harvested over seven weeks; as each climate zone became ripe. This means that harvest starts “up valley” or to the East, and finishes in the Santa Rita Hills. The wine is 100% Syrah that was aged in a variety of oak, 30% new wood, for over a year. The 2002 exhibits a nice “meaty” character that makes it a natural with country cooking, grilled meats, and many strong, soft cheeses.
