Syrah

Description

Winemakers notes ~ Viognier added during crush and co-fermented with “Merit Ferm” yeast a Rhone Valley yeast well suited for Syrah. Barreled in 50% French, 50% American oak for 30 months and then aged in the bottle for an additional six months before releasing.

Tasting notes ~ Our Syrah is as a full-bodied red wine with flavors of plum, black cherries but this wine is all about the finish. It ends with a beautiful blend of spices; cloves, cinnamon and roasted black pepper. We recommend serving this at room temperature. Try serving our Syrah with pork, steak, lamb, or pasta dishes with a heavy red sauce. Sharp Gouda goes nicely with this wine. Herbs, such as cinnamon, clove, oregano and pepper compliment this wine.
