Winemaker Bill Nachbaur & Clay Mauritson Notes
Robust yet opulent with delicate undertones, this is a classic cool-climate Syrah. The aromas of deep dark fruit offer a glimpse of the rich, complex flavors to follow. The core of spicy blackberry with a hint of leather, coffee, orange peel, and dark chocolate is wrapped in a plush yet slightly chewy texture. The 2% of Viognier provides a subtle floral note mid-palate that extends into the finish, adding a layer of interest and complexity. Try it with smoky barbequed ribs, or a spicy eggplant parmesan.
