WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Aromas and flavors of smoked meat, white pepper, green olive and grapefruit, coupled with a silky texture and savory flavor.
TASTING NOTES:
Co-fermented with 13% Viognier, the 2019 Syrah Sonoma Coast has intense aromas of red and black currants, game meats, green olive and coffee beans plus a waft of eucalyptus. The medium-bodied palate is approachable and nuanced with grainy tannins and seamless freshness as it moves through the mouth, and it has a long, juicy finish. It's very easy to drink and will pair widely at the table.
- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 pts.
The 2019 Syrah Sonoma Coast has soft floral aromas of lavender as well as bergamot and lightly spiced plum. It is supple and fruit-forward on the palate without being weighed down and offers notes of fresh blackberry and spice.
