Description:
Fire up the BBQ! This Syrah is in its element when its lovely chocolate, berry and smoke aromas are paired with grilled foods. The bright, pure fruit keeps its head above water when served with spicy foods that put other wines in the doghouse. Rich, jammy berry flavors are accented with intriguing notes of nutmeg and cardamom. Chewy tannins will keep you satisfied as you linger by the fire long after the guests have gone home.

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.
