The most noble of Rhône red varieties, syrah has traveled farther and more successfully than any other. A native of southeast France, syrah has been loved for centuries in the guise of northern Rhône wines such as Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage and Cornas. Its deep, dark robe, meaty, ageworthy texture and evocative perfume reminiscent of fresh game, pepper and violets give it pride of place amongst the finest wine varieties in the world.
Winemaker Notes:
From the dramatically geological extrusions and the
alluvial outcropping dreamscape of the Alamo Creek
Valley, located slightly Northeast of the town of Santa
Maria - the place where the wild things roam - comes
intensely concentrated and mineral-rich syrah. Deeply colored, seductively perfumed, peppery and gamey,
with breathtaking balance; for optimal expression, we
suggest a gentle decanting, allowing the wine to breathe
an hour or two prior to consumption.
