Wine Details
Price:
$34.00 per bottle
Description:
Our Napa Cellars 2005 Syrah was fermented using the delestage method favored by many top Bordeaux chateaux. During this process, the fermented wine is racked into an empty tank, allowing the cap to settle to the bottom. The wine is then returned to the original tank, splashing the juice over the cap, helping to develop deeper color and greater flavor extraction. It also serves as an opportunity for seed removal, helping to eliminate harsh tannins in the finished wine. After a 14-day maceration, the wine was transferred to small barrels, a combination of American, French and Hungarian oak sources and then aged for six months.
