This is a very tasty Syrah from Arroyo Grande Valley in California. Elegant, fruit forward and engaging.
Still young, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.
This Single Vineyard feels like a young Northern Rhône Syrah.
Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Tangy and interesting.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 2 hours of airtime. Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.
Syrah grapes were aged for 20 months in neutral French oak barrels.
