Estate Syrah 2017
Awarded 95 points and Editor's Choice by Wine Enthusiast, it has all the decadence you expect from a Syrah with the subtle sophistication and elegance that develops when you pay close attention to the vines. Aromas of roasted plums and pomegranate with earthy notes and just a hint of herbs. The palate of subtle cranberry combines well with just a touch of mulling spice, sage, and barbecued cedar planks. The balanced acidity and soft tannin finish makes this the perfect wine for any holiday feast.
