Winemaker Kevin Hall Notes
This Alexander Valley Syrah displays intense color depth and character, attributes inherent in the Syrah grape itself, but also augmented by the ideal growing conditions of the valley. Long, warm summer days and cool evenings produce ripe, balanced grapes, the single most important component of this wine. A small amount of Viognier adds to the complexity of the wine, especially the aroma. Barrel aging for fourteen months in French and American oak integrates beautifully with the violet, blueberry and spiciness of this classic Rhone variety.
