Production
All fruit is destemmed and cold soaked for 3 days. Fermentation with selected yeasts in open-topped tanks. During fermentation the vats were hand-plunged twice daily. The young wine was drained to French oak barrels (20% new) for9 months. Racking occurs twice: once in the spring, upon the completion of malolactic fermentation, and the second time for the final barrel selection. The wine was kept in tank on the fine lees until ready for filtration and bottling. 5.200 cases produced.

Tasting notes
The nose exhibits aromas of blackberries and blueberries with notes of black pepper. Black olives and meaty notes are combined with tertiary aromas of tar and toffee. Full-bodied, with structure and freshness. The vibrant, upright acidity is the main attribute of a great cold-weather Syrah. Smooth and clean tannins, with a long finish. This wine will reward careful aging.
