A dense and moody Syrah that remains fresh with supple tannin and dark structure.
Variety: 100% Syrah
Vineyard: Hawks Butte Vineyard, Halcon Vineyard
Location: Yorkville Highlands, CA
Alcohol: 13%
Dark, dense while still wildly fresh with lithe tannin complimented with brooding structure. Blackberries, violet, camphor, white pepper and cedar.
Picked early to preserve acidity, grapes are all crushed by foot and fermented whole cluster, followed by a 10 month elevage in neutral French oak barrique.
Made from a blend of two famed Yorkville Highlands vineyards: Hawks Butte and Halcon. The rugged, high-elevation, rocky wind swept slopes of these dramatic sites makes for unparalleled Syrah.
