Price:
$25.00 per bottle
Description:
My style of port is one that expresses lots of fruit but doesn’t have too much alcohol. Made using Syrah grapes grown next to the vineyard owner’s home in a sheltered and warmer area of the vineyard that suits the riper port style wine. This port is great with dark chocolate or blue cheese! 65 cases produced.

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.
