Winemaker Ray Sliter Notes

Bigger-than-life cool weather Syrah.
470 clone from KW Vineyard (aka Fairview Road Ranch)
Harvested in late October after a cooler than normal summer resulted In moderate alcohol levels and healthy acidity. Blueberry and blackberry fruit, hints of white pepper and a bit of mint and licorice on the finnish. This well balance wine is ideal for pairing with hearty meat dishes and also goes well with sharp cheeses.
